"I've been making people laugh since I was a kid, chatting with David Letterman on The Late Show's recurring segment 'Dave Talks to the Kids', and after as an actor, stand-up, and comedy producer," says Alex Simmons, talent booker and producer for the show, "I have visited this iconic venue countless times for fantastic entertainment and food, it is a privilege to come aboard and bring professional stand-up back home to Don't Tell Mama."

Since 1982, Don't Tell Mama has presented artists of all kinds who have gone on to the world stage and won multiple Emmys, Tonys, Grammys, Oscars, and even a Pulitzer Prize! Jim Gaffigan, Aziz Ansari, Joy Behar, Leah Delaria, Seth Rudetsky and Alec Mapa are all celebrated comics who have appeared regularly at Don't Tell Mama through the years.
