About

Two-time Grammy award winning comedian/actor/writer Lewis Black uses his trademark style of comedic yelling and finger pointing to expose the absurdities of life. His comedic brilliance makes people laugh at life's hypocrisies and the insanity he sees in the world. He has performed throughout the world and the US, where he performed at Carnegie Hall and had two successful Broadway runs.

His latest stand-up special, Tragically, I Need You, released earlier this year and has already surpassed 1.3 million views on YouTube. The brand-new special explores topics including his ways of coping with the pandemic, his frustrations with the evolving world, and of course his thoughts about the chaos of America these last few years.

Adding a unique element to podcasting, Black delivers audience-written Rants which have been submitted from fans around the world on his podcast, Rant Cast.

Black is the longest-running contributor on Comedy Central's THE DAILY SHOW and his stand-up specials have appeared on HBO, Comedy Central, Showtime, and Epix.

In 2020, he released Thanks for Risking Your Life. In 2015, Black notably voiced the character "Anger" in the Pixar Academy Award-winning film, Inside Out. His other notable films include Universal's Accepted co-starring Jonah Hill, Blake Lively and Justin Long, and also Man Of The Year opposite Robin Williams, Christopher Walken, Laura Linney, and Jeff Goldblum.

The comedian has released eight critically acclaimed comedy albums including the 2007 Grammy Award-Winner, The Carnegie Hall Performance. He won his second Grammy in 2011 for his album, Stark Raving Black, and has a total of 6 Grammys nominations. He has published three bestsellers: Nothing's Sacred (Simon & Schuster, 2005), Me of Little Faith (Riverhead Books, 2008) and I'm Dreaming of a Black Christmas (Riverhead Books, 2010).

A published playwright, he's written over 40 plays and has found his work performed throughout the country, including at the A.C.T. Theatre, the Magic Theatre, The Williamstown Theatre Festival, and The Public Theatre.

In addition to his professional pursuits, Lewis is dedicated to a number of charitable organizations including the Luv U Project, Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, and The 52nd Street Project.

He's also deeply committed to supporting our troops. A seasoned USO tour veteran, he's performed for the troops on three Christmas tours in Iraq and Afghanistan.

    Classic Lewis Black - he’s still got it!

    by Kaz on 3/21/24F.M. Kirby Center - Wilkes-Barre

    Lewis did not disappoint - he delighted the crowd with rants, raves, and silliness - with a touch of sweetness and humanity thrown in. I’ll miss him in concert, but looking forward to more podcasts and other socials.

    Lewis Black is the Absolute Best!

    by John S from PA on 3/12/24F.M. Kirby Center - Wilkes-Barre

    Lewis Black may be know for his angry rants but he is insightful and realistic about today’s state of affairs. I’m a fan who’s seen him several times over the years and wish I could be friends with the man. He is extremely humble, delightfully intelligent and knows how to take a contentious topic and make it funny. Don’t miss his rant casts on you tube or his web site either!

    Could not stop laughing

    by Stephanie and Nancy on 3/12/24F.M. Kirby Center - Wilkes-Barre

    I’ve followed Lewis Black on and off for years and have always found him to be hysterical. So glad we got to see him before his retirement from standup. I took my 81-year old mom who has never seen a standup show before for her birthday. She was laughing through the whole show and said her jaw hurt from laughing so much. Highly recommend this show to anyone of any age.

    by Mr. Frete on 3/11/24Hackensack Meridian Health Theatre at the Count Basie Center - Red Bank

    I’ve seen Lewis Black a few times and he is better every time. He keeps up with what’s going on the world. And some old stuff-that’s always funny.Jokes about his decease d 104 year old mother and 101 year old dad(Does it with class). To me he is just super. Count Basie Theatre in Red Bank is fantastic. Personnel are friendly and helpful. Seating is real comfortable. Sat in orchestra seats row S seats 107& 108. Can see the performance very well.parked at the train station-2 block away(5 minute walk)-FREE-Don’t miss his show-You will laugh from start to finish.
