Now hes bringing some of that mojo to television.
His new seriesNight Train With Wyatt Cenacis streaming now on Seeso.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Littlefield is a notably small venue.
How do you translate that intimate, small-venue comedy vibe into a bigger, TV-friendly production?
WYATT CENAC: It is a challenge.
So rather than push stand-up more toward television, why dont we push television more toward stand-up?
Lets not pretend were not shooting for television.
Youre a part of this now, audience were all in this together.
So lets really have a go at capture something.
Is there a reason youre drawn to stand-up more than other forms of comedy.
I like stand-up because its just stripped bare, and its kind of raw.
Its honest, and from that honesty you get magic.
You get these weird little magical things.
Its just you, and its what you produce.
Even if youre someone like Demetri Martin, whod bring drawings on stage.
Thats still stuffhewas going it was just him and an art pad, drawing something.
If theyre doing it well, it’s possible for you to picture whats going on around them.
They can transport you into a world.
Youre so embedded in the local scene.
What are your favorite boroughs to perform in?
1 mainly because its the shortest walk home.
So good or bad, I can get home really fast.
I think Manhattan is No.
2, but Id have to call it 1A, because its where so many shows are.
And you could get a lot of work done at night.
So no Staten Island or the Bronx?
But you never know, though I bet theres a pretty hungry audience in the Bronx for comedy!
I bet theres a show in the Bronx that does pretty well.
Maybe if you ever do a second season ofNight Train, you could shoot it in the Bronx.
Yeah, maybe we could hit all the boroughs, that might be a good idea.
Just hit all the boroughs… and all the major public parks.
