Judah Friedlander: Standup Comedy at Mettlesome

  • Mettlesome 800 Taylor St. Suite 9-156 Durham, NC 27701 USA (map)

Comedian Judah Friedlander brings his stand-up to Mettlesome. Known for his role on 30 Rock and his signature satirical style, Friedlander offers a hilarious take on politics, America, and the absurdities of everyday life.

Extended Bio:

Judah Friedlander’s stand-up comedy is super funny. It is satire at its most creative, incisive, rebellious, and hilarious - but never preachy.

It hilariously & profoundly satirizes the propaganda of American exceptionalism, empire, imperialism, and oppression - through one liner jokes and crowd work in a style all his own. He also does the same on a global scale, not limiting his critique to the USA. Judah also does material and crowd work that is aburdist comedy escapism - not necessarily of any political bend.

Judah Friedlander is a unique & versatile performer & has won awards and accolades as both a comedic actor & dramatic actor. He has been in hundreds of television shows and over 40 feature films. For acting roles, he has often done deep character work, changing his appearance & voice so much that he is unrecognizable - as he did in “American Splendor” for which he was nominated for an Independent Spirit Award for Best Supporting Actor. Judah is also well-known for playing the dirtbag weirdo with a heart of gold “Frank” for all 7 seasons on the multiple Emmy-winning TV comedy “30 Rock”.

Judah is touring with all new material that has not been released before on any album or special. He will be releasing more stand-up comedy performance films soon.
