The Best Comedy Show Ever: Chappelle, Rock, Seinfeld, Schumer and Ansari Perform Surprise Comedy Show at NYC Club

"I was humbled and blessed to have been a part of the greatest show EVER in the history of the Comedy Cellar," wrote Laster.

Try beating this comedy lineup. We dare you.

In what may go down as the best night of stand-up comedy in recent memory, Chris Rock was joined on stage at New York's Comedy Cellar by Dave Chappelle, Amy Schumer, Aziz Ansari and Jerry Seinfeld.

Rock was on hand working out new comedic materials for an upcoming tour, his first in nine years. He was soon joined in unannounced appearances by his fellow comedians backstage who took turns working the crowd for laughs, reports Gothamist.

Rock later posted photos of himself with his fellow comedians, as well as the host Jon Laster.

Laster wrote about the show on Instagram.

"Tonight I was humbled and blessed to have been a part of the greatest show EVER in the history of the Comedy Cellar and maybe comedy period!," Laster wrote.

Tonight I was humbled and blessed to have been a part of the greatest show EVER in the history of the Comedy Cellar and maybe comedy period! We were sitting on the steps when Dave Chappelle told the manager that he didn't wanna go on he just wanted to watch Jerry Seinfeld go on and then he was leaving. He quickly changed his mind and decided to go up. He and Chris Rock then went back and forth about who would be next. Amy Schumer overheard them and asked if she could do five minutes also to be a part of this 'history.' I forgot that Aziz was somewhere outside and needed to go on as well. Felt kinda surreal working with my idols. The Birds, Jordans, LeBrons all in this little hallway but I honestly didn't feel intimidated I felt like I belonged atleast like my work did. I started to excuse myself from this picture and Amy pulled me back into it and said 'fuck that get in the picture you were a part of this!' Thank you soooooo much Estee!! The Lineup: Host: Me Ryan Hamilton Dave Attell Jerry Seinfeld Amy Schumer Chris Rock Aziz Ansari Dave Chappelle Every once in a while we get a glimpse into our growth. My law of attraction is working, my sobriety is working, the people that push me (Tracey Moore), it's working! I am so happy. I am so grateful. I am so humbled. Thank you for any kind words in advance! #comedy #beautiful #lawofattraction #funnyordie #comedycellar #tbt #drinks #food #girls #fitness #yoga #snl #ihashtaglikea17yearoldwhitegirl

Earlier in the evening both Seinfeld and Chappelle were on the "The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon" as part of an all-star sendoff for First Lady Michelle Obama.
