    About This Event

    John Lutz and Peter Grosz perform a two-person comedy set at the UCB Theatre. Grosz, who has worked as a television writer and actor and has appeared alongside comedians such as Jay Jurden and Corinne Fisher, brings material shaped by that background, often folding narrative and performative instincts into his stand-up.

    About 2 Square

    2 Square is a live comedy show now running at UCB Theatre in New York City, built around fast scene work and the friction between two performers sharing a tight frame. Featured performers John Lutz and Peter Grosz bring a studied, character-forward approach that leans on timing more than volume. UCB’s stage has long functioned as a testing ground for downtown comedy, and this set sits in that lineage. The show’s clearest strength is how it turns small choices into escalating consequences.
