March 27, 2023Birthday Party
Had a birthday party with roughly 40 people.
Jerrold made the event!
He was crazy funny, involved everyone, had us in tears from laughing so hard.
There was a lot of love in the room.
Next we want to take him with us on a guys' trip.
Jerrold is a warm, wonderful human being with a top, top shelf comic's eye.
Any event will be better, much better, with Jerrold a part of it.
Wish I could him a sixth star.

August 26, 2019Excellent job
Jerrold was fantastic he showed up as we agree and did exactly what I asked him. The guests were really surprise when I actually introduce Jerrold as a comedian not someone I went to school with. Jerrold made it very entertaining and personable.
I would highly recommend Jerrold for an event.

What to expect
With me, you don't know what to expect! What I will say is expect the unexpected. I am intelligent when need be and a goofball the rest of the time. I'm animated and high-energy. I will give you my all and guarantee you enjoy my performance.
About
I started stand-up in January of 2006 and loved it ever since. I've performed in every possible scenario of this field, lol. From stadiums to basements with literally 6 people, I've adapted to all the challenges of performing and relating to various crowds. I've performed at Rascals, Carolines on Broadway, Stand Up NY, The Stand, Broadway Comedy Club, Eastville Comedy Club and a ton of others up and down the east coast. I love private events - birthdays and anniversaries where I get to make of/with the guests of honor.
Additional booking notes
All I need is a mic and sound system
