Charles Star is a stand-up comic working throughout New York City and wherever else he happens to find himself. Like every other comedian, the Zagat's entry of his comedy states that he has a "unique voice" and a "twisted perspective" and will "leave you laughing", when you aren't "begging God to kill you immediately because of the constant, dull pain of trying to muddle through life."
He writes for "http://stayfreemagazine.org">Stay Free! magazine and is a contributing editor to its "http://blog.stayfreemagazine.org">blog and also "http://anotherfuckingwedding.com">this blog. His writing has also appeared in "http://modernhumorist.com">Modern Humorist and he has done voice work for "http://www.theonion.com/content/node/55742">Onion Radio News. He is working on getting his own site up, but until then, you can find his schedule "http://myspace.com/charles_star">on MySpace.
Charles used to run an open mic at "http://ripplebar.com">Ripple, but stopped when the pain of trying to get comics to venture out into Prospect Heights for an open mic became too much to bear. He stopped hosting Burlesque Night at the now-defunct "http://boudoirbar.com">Boudoir Bar when the owner of the bar became too much to bear.
