Melendez approaches the show with strong recent momentum, promising an exciting performance. Rodney’s Comedy Club sold out. Tommy Foxx’s in New Jersey sold out. Celtic Corner in New Jersey sold out. One of those recent appearances also drew Page Six coverage, which added another burst of attention to his return to live stand-up.

His April 16 appearance gives fans a chance to see him live in one of New York City’s best-known comedy rooms, this time in a straightforward club setting built around the show itself.

Comic Strip Live lists the event as “The Stuttering John Show!” at 1568 2nd Avenue in New York. Eventbrite also lists tickets for the April 16 performance, with the show starting at 8:00 PM.
