BROOKLYN, NY, UNITED STATES, November 8, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- This Life Day, the Force gets freaky.

Brooklyn’s own brooklynONE productions (bkONE) invites Star Wars fans from across the galaxy to celebrate Life Day — the saga’s most infamous holiday — with an epic evening of comedy, cosplay, and cosmic chaos at the Tom Kane Theatre inside Industry City.

The Life Day Launch Party marks the official debut of Nerdy, Dirty, and Tasteless: Star Wars Jokes IV, a hilariously unfiltered collection of over 150 jokes and illustrations created for adult Star Wars fans by authors John Szeluga and Chris Sorrentino.

Every ticket includes a signed copy of the book, and attendees are encouraged to arrive in full Star Wars attire or costume for a night that fuses intergalactic humor with Brooklyn’s creative flair.
