Tour the Amateur Comedy Club and Historic Sniffen Court: Oct. 3 & 4
MHNAPresented by the Amateur Comedy Club
Step into a hidden corner of NYC’s past at 150 E. 36th St with a rare opportunity to explore the Amateur Comedy Club (founded 1884) building and Sniffen Court. This mid-19th-century mews feel like a secret world within the city. Its ten brick carriage houses, arranged around a quiet courtyard, form the Sniffen Court Historic District, a unique example of 1850s design listed on the National Register of Historic Places. During the tour, you’ll discover the Amateur Comedy Club, which transformed two of these carriage houses into a theater in 1918. As the oldest continuously operating theatrical club of its kind in the country, the Club offers a glimpse into history through its Green Room, Prohibition-era liquor lockers, and remarkable collection of theatrical art and memorabilia.
Guests will also enjoy refreshments and a surprise performance.
Participants will need to climb a set of steep stairs.
