What’s in a name? Apparently, a lot of confusion, mistaken identity, and material for a very funny stand-up show.Join comedians Erin Maguire, Erin Jackson, and Mia Jackson for What’s in a Name? — a stand-up comedy showcase featuring three women whose names overlap in ways that make Google, social media, and introductions unnecessarily complicated. They’ll explore the weirdness of sharing names with people who are considerably more famous, the assumptions people make based on a name, and the eternal question: “Wait… which one are you?”But this show isn’t just about names. Expect sharp observations, personal stories, relationships, everyday absurdities, and plenty of jokes about the business of being a person in the world.Three comedians. Three overlapping names. Zero chance everyone gets introduced correctly.What’s in a Name? More than you’d think.Presented by New York Comedy Festival.
