In the hit Netflix series “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt,” Ellie Kemper plays a 29-year-old woman just freed from 15 years as a hostage in an underground bunker in Indiana. Naturally she moves to New York, where she lives with a fab gay roommate (Tituss Burgess) in the basement of a ramshackle house owned by a wacked-out landlady (Carol Kane) in a not yet gentrified neighborhood and works for a cluelessly abusive society lady down on her luck (Jane Krakowski).
Tonight, the show’s creators — Tina Fey, Robert Carlock, Sam Means, Dan Rubin, Leila Strachan, Azie Dungey, Meredith Scardino, and Lauren Gurganous — discuss the series as part of the citywide celebration of the New York Comedy Festival.
92nd Street Y, Kaufmann Concert Hall, 1395 Lexington Ave. at 92nd St. Nov. 5, 1 p.m.
Tickets are $60; $15 for those under 35 at 92y.org.
