HISTORY OF COMEDY AT THE APOLLO

Recognized primarily for its role in launching the careers of some of the world’s biggest music artists, the Apollo also has a long and storied history with comedy. Since the Theater first opened its doors in 1934, comics were a central part of the Theater’s variety shows. From the 1930’s through the early 1950’s, comedy at The Apollo consisted of situational, sketch humor and evolved to include stand-up monologues and social commentary from the mid-1950’s and on.

The Apollo’s roster of comic artists who graced its legendary stage, adding to its already rich legacy include: Lincoln Perry (Stepin Fetchit), Eddie “Rochester” Anderson, Pigmeat Markham, Mantan Moreland, Tim “Kingfish” Moore, Butterbeans and Susie, Flournoy Miller, Timmie Rogers, Jackie “Moms” Mabley, Slappy White, Redd Foxx, Nipsey Russell, George Kirby, Dick Gregory, Flip Wilson, Richard Pryor, Paul Mooney, Sinbad, Capone, Mo’Nique, Steve Harvey, Kenan Thompson, Wanda Sykes, Chris Rock and Dave Chapelle, to name a few.

The Apollo Comedy Club presents a welcome and timely space for audiences to laugh and let loose, while providing emerging and established comedians a legendary forum to experiment and hone their craft.
