The ShowRoom to Host Stand-Up Science Comedy Show

originally published: 01/12/2023


(ASBURY PARK, NJ) -- The ShowRoom Asbury Park welcomes comedian Ben Miller and his show Stand-Up Science on Saturday, January 28th at 7:30pm. A show that’s equal measures hilarious, educational, and deeply personal, scientist turned stand-up comedian Ben Miller takes you on a journey that explores everything from chairs to the thermodynamics of refrigerators with a wit and humor that make these topics both approachable and delightful. The show had a sold-out run at the 2022 Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Mark Henley will host the event and Angelo Gingerelli will open for Miller.

Miller is an NYC-based comedian who has been working for the past six years. He has performed at the top clubs in the city including Broadway Comedy Club, Stand Up NY, Dangerfield’s, Carolines, and The Stand. He’s currently ranked as the top roast battler in NYC. He has a degree in Materials Science and Engineering from Columbia University. He’s worked with electron microscopes, been a teacher on a science bus, 3D printed cookies and diffused a few bar fights while on stage.

Mark Henely is a stand-up comedian who is regularly featured on Comedy Fight Club, has performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and many prestigious comedy clubs in NYC such as the Stand. But, more important than that, Mark was born on the Jersey Shore and is a Jersey Shore boy through and through. He is a 2x nominee for Top Comedian at the Asbury Park Music Awards and played the lead role of Wilbur in Belmar Elementary’s 1996 2nd Grade Play. He is also sick of all the Bennies and their terrible driving.

One of Angelo Gingerelli’s first comedy events was “Comedy on Cookman” at the original ShowRoom, which ran from 2013-2015. This was the first monthly comedy showcase in Asbury Park and is widely credited as one of the events that started the Jersey Shore Comedy Scene. Gingerelli is a stand-up comic, author and podcaster that lives in Long Branch and could not be more excited to be telling jokes at The ShowRoom again. He is one half of Ugly Pancake Productions, a local comedy event organization.

The ShowRoom Cinema, Asbury Park’s independent movie theater, is located at 707 Cookman Avenue in Asbury Park, New Jersey. Tickets are $20 and available in advance at showroomcinemas.com.
