Comedy Spillage's 10 Year Anniversary: The Libra Birthday Show to Be at on October 18


Real people. Real laughs. Good vibes.
On Sunday, October 18, 2026, Comedy Spillage brings a special night of laughter, celebration, and connection to Slate NYC in Manhattan.
This is more than one of the exciting NYC comedy events on the fall calendar. It is the Comedy Spillage: 10 Year Anniversary & Libra Birthday Celebration, honoring Trevor and Craig while celebrating a decade of shared laughs, live entertainment, and welcoming community.
I’m Trevor Bonner, the creative force behind Bonnerfied Entertainment, and this celebration means a lot to me. I’ve always wanted Comedy Spillage to feel like a place where people can show up as themselves, enjoy a great room, laugh together, and leave with a night they will remember.

Celebrate 10 Years Of Comedy Spillage
Comedy Spillage has grown through the energy of performers, audiences, friends, and supporters who believe in the simple power of a good comedy night.
Since 2010, Slate NYC has been the home of Comedy Spillage and the foundation of the showcase. Located at 54 West 21st Street, between 5th and 6th Avenues, Slate gives this anniversary show the right setting: central, lively, social, and ready for a full evening of entertainment.
For this milestone, I’m bringing together a lineup that represents the spirit of the show. The night will move from live stand-up comedy into a DJ after-party, giving you plenty of time to laugh, connect, celebrate, and enjoy the room.
A Libra Birthday Celebration For Trevor And Craig
The October 18 event is also a birthday celebration for Trevor and Craig.
That gives the night an extra layer of warmth. It is an anniversary, a birthday gathering, and a chance for the Comedy Spillage community to come together in one place. Whether you already know the show or this will be your first time attending, you are invited to be part of the celebration.
Libra season is a fitting time for a night built around balance, conversation, good company, and shared enjoyment. The atmosphere will be festive without feeling forced. Come ready to laugh, look your best, and enjoy a room full of real people and good energy.
Meet The Lineup
Headliner: Comedian Jay
Comedian Jay leads the evening as the headliner. Known as Jay “The Sing-a-Median,” he brings a distinct performance style to the stage and will close out the showcase with a set made for a celebration.
Host: Shawn Cornelius
Shawn Cornelius will host the evening and guide the audience through the show. A strong host helps keep the night moving, keeps the room connected, and makes every part of the lineup feel like part of one shared experience.
Featured Performers
The Comedy Spillage anniversary lineup also includes:
- Mugga
- Kenny Woo
- Daniel Geneen
- Sashalyn Medina
With a mix of personalities and comedic voices, the show is designed to keep the energy moving from the first introduction through the final laugh.
Make A Full Night Of It
This is one of those New York comedy shows that can easily become a full night out.
Arrive And Settle In
Doors open at 5:00 PM. Arriving early gives you time to get comfortable, meet up with your group, order food or drinks, and enjoy Slate before the show begins.
The event runs from 5:00 PM to 11:00 PM overall.
Seating is first come, first served, so early arrival is suggested. Planning ahead helps you focus on the fun once you walk in.
Enjoy The Live Show
The main comedy showcase runs from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM.
This is the heart of the evening: a live room, a responsive audience, and performers sharing their point of view in real time. That is what makes live comedy NYC so special. No two audiences create exactly the same night.
Keep The Energy Going
After the showcase, the celebration continues with a DJ after-party from 8:00 PM to 10:30 PM, featuring DJ Xcel.
You can keep talking, meet new people, enjoy the music, and let the night shift naturally from stand-up comedy into nightlife. If you enjoy curated social gatherings, our event after-party access is an easy way to keep the experience going.

Why October 18 Is Worth Showing Up For
There are plenty of comedy shows in Manhattan, but this night brings several meaningful moments together:

- A Libra birthday celebration for Trevor and Craig

I create these events because I believe people still want places where they can gather without overcomplicating the experience. You can come for the headliner, bring friends for a birthday, plan a date night, or simply give yourself a reason to get out and enjoy live entertainment in New York.
