Truly Talented

Alex recently performed at our holiday party and we are very pleased with his performance. The day after the party I received numerous text messages from coworkers saying how funny he was. 4 days after the performance we are still laughing at Alex’s jokes. We have a diverse group and Alex did a great job adapting to our group. Book Alex and you won’t be disappointed.

This guy is hilarious!

Alex is an extremely talented comic. We asked him to perform for our charity fundraising event and right from the start we knew we had booked a winner. He was courteous and prompt in his communication with our planning people; he was very diligent in making sure his comedy was both suitable and well-received by our audience. Most importantly, he was hilarious! The audience was engaged and they loved his performance. I strongly recommend Alex.

Hilarity guaranteed

Alex came to perform for a fundraiser at my medical school and from the moment he picked up the microphone, people never stopped laughing. His jokes were hilarious, his delivery was fantastic, and the crowd loved him. If you're looking for a dynamic comedian who is really easy to work with, Alex is your man. Looking forward to working with him again soon.

What to expect

Audiences at my comedy shows leave feeling bright and joyous. They'll have jokes and catchphrases that they will be repeating to themselves and others during even their most basic every day activities that remind them of these lines. They'll also feel as if they have seen a comedian that they respected as opposed to the common misconception people have of comedians today telling old Borscht Belt or airplane jokes they have heard before. It is a fun and engaging experience unlike most entertainment that can be tuned out or is forgettable.

Additional booking notes

The best shows are simple with enough chairs to seat everyone in attendance, a microphone, microphone stand, spotlight and stage. Stand-up comedy is excellent as it is very low-tech. Even with these requirements I have seen comedians adapt wonderfully to some of the most horrible performance envirnments. The show will go on.

Set list

Education and College, Money, Work Experience, City Living, Comedy Shows, Famous Bands, Booze, Hippies, Drug Use, Dad, Mom, Divorce, Girlfriends, Birthdays, Strangers and The Squirrel Joke

Influences and inspiration

Mitch Hedberg, Tom Rhodes, Doug Stanhope, Jerry Seinfeld, Christopher Titus, George Carlin, Marc Maron, Doug Benson, Louis CK, Bill Hicks, Maria Bamford, Drake Sather, Saturday Night Live, The Simpsons and many other comedians and television shows.
