From the liner notes

Victor Argo (Ghost Dog, Taxi Driver, True Romance) is a shoe store manager who attempts to revive a failed career as a stand–up comic by performing at a mysterious club where he finds himself sharing the stage with a looming, ready–to–shock Electric Chair... and performing before an audience of himself in the various stages of his life, and other friends, family and enemies—who are all subject to his cantankerous and biting routines on love, society, friendship, and god.

The Electric Chair features a stunning performance and rare leading role from the late, great Argo, one of New York City's most prolific and memorable character actors. Never before released, The Electric Chair is a true lost treasure of New York City filmmaking at its most inspired, sarcastic and dark—laced with shades of both Martin Scorsese and Jim Jarmusch—and striking a chord somewhere between Lenny and The King of Comedy.
