Brick City Comedy Revue to Hold 11th Anniversary Show

originally published: 07/18/2025

(NEWARK, NJ) -- Brick City Comedy Revue has been Newark's premier comedy showcase for over 10 years! Hosted by Justin Williams and DJ Gonzalo Silva, the revue will celebrate its 11th Anniversary on Friday, August 1, 2025 at Newark Local Beer. Showtime is 8:00pm.

This month's show features performances by Regina DeCicco, Amy Shanker, Adam Mamawala, J-L Cauvin, and Marshall Stevenson. The musical guest is Jané Miranda and the special guest co-host is Gordon Baker-Bone. The show is an official stop of Newark First Fridays.

Tickets are $15.17 and available for purchase online. Newark Local Beer is located at 538 Broad Street in Newark, New Jersey.

Regina DeCicco is the opening comedian for the The View on ABC. At night, you can find Regina performing at the world famous Comedy Cellar in NYC. Also a favorite at Gotham Comedy Club, Regina is often asked to participate in benefit shows for organizations like Gilda’s Club and Achilles International. You can sometimes hear Regina on SiriusXM, either as part of The Ladies of Laughter From The Friars Club album or as a guest contributor to The Howard Stern Show.

Amy Shanker grew up with the looks of a prepubescent Latino boy and a family that her friends dubbed "The Jewish Griswalds," Amy had no choice but to go into standup comedy. Her dry comedic style and edgier perspective stem from her time as an inner-city high school English teacher. Amy's a regular at Laugh Factory, Zanies, and The Stand NYC. She performs at clubs, corporations, and colleges across the U.S.
