Punderdome® is the wild & crazy monthly pun compuntition that’s been part of New York’s comedy landscape since May 2011. In June of 2020, we transitioned our Stage Show to a Virtual Show, which is based on the Punderdome® Card Game. And, the focus is “Beyond NYC” - we seek out Bonafide Pun Champions and Celebrities from around the globe! Champs from Australia, Canada, Malaysia, the UK as well as from throughout the US, now regularly do the ’Dome. This is the new “permanent” normal for the Punderdome®.

The New York Times referred to the Punderdome® as “both an endearingly homemade and impressively high-caliber show during which astute wordsmiths (including a crew of beloved regular punsters) spin clever and very funny puns to a packed house.” GQ Magazine shouted the Punderdome® as one of the “5 Funniest Nights in America,” and quoted comedian Chris Gethard on why it’s great: “The crowd. You’d think you were at the Roman Colosseum. They’re passionate, to a level that feels dangerous. And to reiterate, this is a pun competition.” And, Swing American said: “The intellect on display is stunning. Hardly a pun is repeated throughout the entire night. What Punderdome ends up achieving is the transformation of the delivery of the lowly pun to one of the greatest displays of human ingenuity contemporary New York has to offer.”
