Brash, bold, and hysterical. High energy, ballsy, and no-bullshit.
Award-winning comedian and multi-hyphenate actor-writer-producer-author Iliza Shlesinger, best known for her raucous standup comedy specials Unveiled and Elder Millennial, has been entertaining the world over with her own brand of observational comedy. Now, she sits down with us to share insights from her latest book, All Things Aside, a collection of personal essays about the exasperating issues of everyday life. As she describes it, “fun for anyone who is frustrated with the way the world works.” Don’t miss this rare, in-person conversation with one of comedy’s best & brightest!
