Theater Description

THE MAINSTAGE - 254 W. 29th Street, NYCAudiences come to Magnet for great comedy shows. The shows are consistently recommended by critics, tourists, locals, comedy snobs, and people looking for a great cheap date. Plus, there's beer and wine. 

Our Mainstage features talented and experienced (and exceptionally funny) improvisers doing some of the best comedy you'll see anywhere. The schedule is loaded with shows ranging from long form improv, musical improv, duos, scripted sketch comedy, storytelling, free jams open to anyone, and one-offs featuring special guest stars. Plus, free student performances take place all weekend at the Training Center Studio (one block North of the Mainstage).
