New York Post Reports: A Seattle comedy club canceled four comics because they didn’t align with its neighborhood’s “progressive values” — leading one of the funnymen to predict the club would go out of business.
“I speak my mind on stage, I’m edgy, I don’t kiss the audience’s a–. I’ll talk about the transgender stuff,” the Brooklyn native and New Jersey resident said.
Florentine and the other comics, who share the same agent, were notified by the club’s booker, Jes Anderson, about the change of heart in a letter.
Anderson said in the missive that the club valued the “art of comedy” and “diverse perspectives,” but had been forced to draw a line after receiving “significant feedback expressing concerns about the alignment of these upcoming shows with the neighborhood’s ethos.”
