Stand-Up Westchester Comedy Club Presents: Comedy From Scratch, at The Idea Kitchen - BYOB 3/28
Comedy From Scratch is where you go in Westchester County to hear top comics from TV and NYC's major clubs performing long sets on an intimate stage. Past performers include comedians from HBO, Netlfix, Colbert, SNL, the Daily Show, Letterman, the Tonight Show, Comedy Central, and more. Every month, Ben Asher's presents comedy that reaches up into your brain with the force of a fist through the nose. Named "Best Comedy Show in Westchester" by Westchester Magazine. Our 3-Year Anniversary Show in this month!!
Every month you can hear some of the most talented comics perform long sets, that other shows don't give them the time to perform. Comedy From Scratch is your chance to get to really watch comedians flex their muscles and hit their stride on stage, at The Idea Kitchen.
Locally-grown comedian Ben Asher presents a tasting of what the area's best stand-up comics are cooking up, at 'Comedy From Scratch' at the Idea Kitchen every 2nd and 4th Saturday of the month - that's right, you demanded more comedy, so we now give Westchester Comedy Twice a Month!

Ben Asher, a writer and comedian from New York, is known for his “brave,” confrontational material, and his skills as a “brilliant joke writer” among fellow comedians. He performs regularly at comedy venues and colleges throughout the metropolitan area, East Coast, and Europe. Audiences are always quick to share their appreciation of Ben’s style of sardonic irreverence and absurd, satiric wit in which he doesn’t just dissect language and taboos - he explodes them. “What Ben Asher says makes me laugh, even though I feel like I shouldn’t."
