Laughs, Heart, and Great Spaghetti: Chris Ferretti Takes the Stage at The Green Room 42**

Prepare for a night of laughter and unforgettable stories as NYC-based comedian Chris Ferretti graces The Green Room 42 for a recording of his next comedy special, *MIDNIGHT HERO*. A fixture in the New York comedy scene, Chris promises an evening filled with his unique blend of humor and heartfelt storytelling, touching on everything from family life and the trials of marriage to the perils of confronting a burglar in nothing but his “nut huggers” armed with a wooden spoon.

Chris Ferretti’s journey to the stand-up stage is a colorful one. Drawn to the arts at a young age, he dabbled in theatrical productions that, though perhaps not seen by many, laid the foundation for his creative aspirations. His educational path took him to the University of Rhode Island, where he studied theatre and marketing—a combination that has served him surprisingly well as a bartender in Connecticut. As he juggled jobs and his passion for performance, he honed his skills further at The Actors Studio, earning his MFA and an unforgettable handshake with the acclaimed Bradley Cooper.

His talent as an actor has not gone unnoticed, earning accolades including Best Supporting Actor in a Web Series and several ensemble cast awards. His comedic flair shines brightly through his diverse body of written works. From his off-Broadway debut *THE SESSION* to the pandemic-inspired *FISH AND VISITORS: A COVID COMEDY*, Chris’s creativity knows no bounds. His solo show, *VOICEMAILS FROM PURGATORY*, humorously captures the essence of his Irish-Italian upbringing in Bayonne, New Jersey, inviting audiences to connect with the relatable chaos of family life.

In addition to his success on stage, Chris and his wife, Julie, recently launched a book, *GO SH*T IN A HAT: Wise Words, Vulgar Expressions, and a Little Bit of Advice from the One and Only Auntie Ro*, with all proceeds supporting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. This venture speaks volumes about Chris’s commitment to both his craft and his community.

Now making waves in the comedy circuit, Chris showcases his stand-up at renowned clubs around New York City. Known not just for his comedy but also for his gift of mimicry, he runs a voice-over business on Fiverr and has lent his talents to projects on Hulu, HBO, and the New York Comedy Festival. Audiences also admire his remarkable parallel parking skills and his legendary spaghetti and meatballs recipe.

Joining Chris at The Green Room 42 for the evening will be an impressive lineup, featuring Laz Rivero, Phil Korz, Mike Favor, and Todd Montesi—all comedians who share in Chris’s commitment to delivering high-quality entertainment. With such a stellar cast and Chris’s knack for storytelling, *MIDNIGHT HERO* promises to be an exhilarating night of comedy filled with relatable humor and poignant moments.

As critics continue to sing his praises, calling him “one of the best up-and-coming stand-up comics in Queens and NYC,” it’s clear that Chris Ferretti is a name to watch as he makes his mark on the comedy landscape. Don’t miss your chance to witness this rising star live on stage; a few laughs with Chris might just make your night a little less ordinary!
