Bill Cosby's Possible Stand-Up Tour Stop Rejected by Comedy Cellar in NYC VladTV 2,156 views • comments It was previously revealed that Bill Cosby had planned on pushing forward with a comedy tour following his prison release. A representative for Cosby previously noted that Cosby was “talking to a number of promoters and comedy club owners” and said he’s “just excited the way the world is welcoming him back.” However, it seems not all spaces are open to Cosby’s return, with a venue in New York reportedly denying Cosby’s chance to bring his tour into their establishment. The Comedy Cellar in New York City reportedly denied Cosby the chance to feature one of his tour stops, according to owner Noam Dworman. The club owner spoke to TMZ and said despite his audience allowing comics like Louis C.K. and Aziz Ansari being allowed back in the space—with both facing similar accusations, Cosby wouldn’t be supported in a comeback to the venue.
