“Do you know Rick Crom?”

Most likely, another question answers that question: “Rick, who?” Even after you Google his name, you’re still unsure who he is, but you know you’ve seen him somewhere before.

Then it hits you, “Oh, the guy from Louis CK’s show! The gay guy in the poker scene, right?” Yes, THAT is Rick Crom. But there’s so much more to Rick beyond that poker table. On any given Saturday morning, Rick is bustling down the sidewalk, papers in hand, on his way to the “Comedy Cellar,” one of New York City’s most respected platforms for stand-up comics. The “Cellar,” as it’s known to Village regulars, is where Rick teaches undiscovered, aspiring stand-up comics. It’s also where Rick got his own start back in 1984. Now almost four decades later, who did Rick become?

He’s an award-winning actor, singer, comedian, lyricist, composer and teacher. He’s made a living in entertainment for all these years doing what he loves, an accomplishment few can claim. On top of that, he’s a kind person who’s respected and loved by his colleagues. But, did he make it?

Success. Fame. Luck. Timing. Happiness. Life.

“Oh, Rick!” is a documentary that aims to redefine how we measure it all. And most importantly, to answer this question: “What drives Rick to be Rick?”

Including a 25th anniversary reunion stand-up special recorded at the Comedy Cellar.
