Helium Comedy, already a premier national comedy brand with a network of eight clubs across the country is now streaming comedy video content. Helium Comedy Studios will produce premium content on its YouTube streaming channel starting with clips from the Helium Stages, with full stand-up specials and more to come.
Brad Grossman, COO, and Co-Owner of Helium Comedy said that the new network will allow Helium to offer another platform for up and coming talent, and will help grow Helium as a brand, as well as help, grow the art form and be a part of the accessibility and modernization of live performances. It’s a win-win situation, with comedians benefitting from the additional exposure and fans benefitting from (obviously) enjoying free content.
“It was a clear opportunity for us to bolster great new talent as we already have the means to do so with our 8 club facilities that are within the top 50 DMAs,” commented Helium Co-Owner Marc Grossman. “The pandemic forced us to take a step back and consider how Helium could pivot and grow with the future of comedy by expanding our brand beyond live in-person performances. Now with video and a digital platform, we can aid these new talents in reaching a national audience.”
Helium Comedy Studios Executive Producer Jimmy Chairman explains that this is the next logical step in the evolution of the comedy special. “We’re offering a phenomenally curated selection of comedians, coming from the country’s best comedy rooms with network-quality production values. I’m so proud of the product and the stand-up consuming public is really going to enjoy it. We could all use a laugh right now.”
The channel has already debuted content from Jeff Dye, Jon Dore, Mary Radzinski, Ben Gleib, Jade Catta-Preta, Alonzo Bodden, Ocean Glapion, Brent Gill, Rahmein Mostafavi, Paul Varghese, David James, Mat Alano-Martin Corey Rodriguez, Monica Nevi and Simon Gibson.
The channel will offer new content on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays so you can check back often.
Viewers can look forward to Helium Comedy Studios’ upcoming content releases on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, as well as more exciting creative content to come.
