Calling comics

Bring your set to The Mahogany.

We book stand-ups who work a real room. If that's you, here's what we're looking for — and how to get in front of us.

What we look for

Three things we ask.

You're actually performing.

Clubs, bars, venues, open mics, festivals — we want comics who are currently working stages, not just thinking about it. Tell us where you've been on recently.

You promote your shows.

Your name on the flyer is only half of it. We look for comics who bring an audience, post their dates, and get people in the room. A crowd you can move matters as much as the material.

You're in — or coming through — Buffalo, NY.

We're in Tonawanda, just outside Buffalo, and we book local talent and comics passing through Western New York. If you're based here or touring this way, we want to hear from you.

How to submit

Send us your set.

We keep it simple. Send us a note through our contact page with the info below and our booking team will get back to you. Local comics and touring acts alike — everyone gets a read.

What to include:

Your links
A clip of a recent set — YouTube, Instagram or TikTok all work.
Where you've played
Recent clubs, bars, venues or showcases, and how often you perform.
Your city
Whether you're Buffalo-based or coming through the area, and your availability.
Your bio
A short introduction, plus any socials or upcoming dates you want us to see.

Please don't send full-length videos — a short clip is plenty.
