In the Lounge Glory W(hole) Hosted by Lili Pujol and Mateo Rodriguez-Hurtado

Electrifying, ethereal, and straight up gay. From the depths of interplanetary space, MCs Lili Pujol & Mateo Rodriguez-Hurtado bring you Glory W(hole). This curated show is a chance for up & coming queer comedians of color to have their downtown debut amongst seasoned veterans of the comedy scene. Every show has a big ‘ole hole in the line up. Who can fill our hole? Any BIPOC queer comedian that signs up. Cum for the sazón and stay for the fresh fruit.
Zubi Ahmed is a Bangladeshi-American writer, comedian, and filmmaker from New York City. Short in height and temper, Zubi is most aptly described as a homicidal softy on stage and in real life. She effortlessly connects to audiences from all walks of life with her relatable and belligerent humor. As a filmmaker, Zubi was the recipient of the BBC Diversity Scholarship for her short film Rupali V. Society, and her web-series, Polterheist, was selected to screen at South Asian Film Festival of America and NY Lift-Off Film Fest. Zubi is also one of the co-creators and hosts of popular NYC comedy show, Kutti Gang which has been featured on New York Times and PBS AllArts. Zubi’s writing has most recently been recognized by The Blacklist’s Muslim List for her unique and tumultuous dark comedy pilot Brooklyn Bengalis. You can catch Zubi on an episode of Ramy in Season 3, on stage somewhere in the city, or loitering at a local coffee shop attempting to manufacture a meet cute.
Jess Henderson is a Brooklyn-based comedian whose work lives at the intersection of the spiritual plane and the physical world. You may recognize Jess from HBO’s And Just Like That, Shrill, and the HBO Pride special. Known for blending sharp wit with deep intuition, Jess makes jokes about the accents that raised them, the dead they talk to (and about), and the beautiful chaos of the occult. A fixture in Brooklyn’s thriving comedy scene, Jess can be seen performing all over the borough, delivering sets that are soulful, hilarious, and a little bit otherworldly.
