Roast Me! Praise Me!

Bobby Sheehan and Mark Henely are veterans of the New York City Roast Battle Scene. The years in the insult trenches have hardened Bobby. Turned him into a masochist that loves to be roasted. However, those same years have made Mark soft. He crumbles at the lightest of insults and can only be praised. This show will allow audiences the opportunity to give these performers what they crave. For Bobby, that is to be roasted. For Mark, it is to be praised.

Bobby Sheehan is a NYC based standup comedian, history buff, and generous lover. He performs at The Stand in NYC, clubs and colleges across the U.S. In the summer of 2023, he toured across England and made his Edinburgh Festival Fringe debut. He’s brought his unique brand of R-rated material to the New York Comedy Festival, the Lookout Comedy Festival, and Philly Theatre Week.

Mark Henely is a Jersey City based stand up comedian with 10 years experience performing at clubs around the country including The Stand NYC, The Stress Factory in NJ, TeeHee’s in IA, Indianapolis Helium, The Lincoln Lodge in Chicago and more. His style of comedy is very conversational, crowd work heavy, and improvisational. He has completed three runs at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival between 2022-2024. He was featured regularly on the NYC roast battle show Comedy Fight Club before the fog of war became too much. Prior to his roast battle retirement, he won the 2022 King of New Jersey Roast Battle Tournament.

Roast Me! Praise Me! Is a brand new comedy show that will dazzle viewers. Join them for an action packed hour of hilarity.
