One of the most critically hailed comedians of his generation, Alex Edelman is best known for solo shows that blur the line between his stand-up comedy roots and narrative-driven storytelling.

Edelman recently appeared in Jerry Seinfeld’s directorial debut for Netflix, UNFROSTED. He is currently developing a movie with A24 that he will write, direct, and star in with Marc Platt and Stephen Levenson producing. His debut non-fiction collection, I DON’T BELONG HERE, recently sold to Avid Reader at auction.
