Cozy Comedy presents Gary Gulman: Grandiloquent
Advertisement
Over 30 years in comedy, Gary Gulman has established himself as an eminent performer and peerless writer.
A product of Boston, Gulman has been a scholarship college football player, an accountant, and a high school teacher. He has made countless television appearances as both a comedian and an actor.
Gulman has made five masterful TV specials including his most recent universally acclaimed stand-up specials for HBO Max, Born On 3rd Base, lending his meticulous comedic craft to the current Tale of Two Cities-esque wealth gap, and The Great Depresh, a tour de force look at mental illness, which is equal parts hilarious and inspiring.
Most recently, Gary made his off-broadway debut with a five-week sold-out run at the Lucille Lortel Theatre of his critically-acclaimed one-man show Grandiloquent, directed by Tony Award-winner Moritz von Stuelpnagel and produced by Mike & Carlee Productions (Oh Mary). In 2019, he appeared in the international blockbuster Joker. He can most recently be seen co-starring with Amy Schumer in the hit Hulu comedy series Life & Beth.
Gary's first book, published by Flatiron Books, is titled Misfit: Growing Up Awkward in the '80s, a memoir based on his life from Kindergarten through Twelfth Grade. It was released in September of 2023. Amy Schumer called the book "laugh out loud funny and heartfelt" and MacArthur Fellowship recipient Adrian Nicole LeBlanc found it "exquisite, love-affirming and generous."
Today, Gulman is one of the most popular touring comics, selling out theaters around the country including the prestigious Carnegie Hall in New York City. Gary is currently touring with Misfit: A Gary Gulman Stand Up & Book Tour, which features material based on his book, but not a repeat of the book. Gary lives in Harlem with his wife.
Note: This production was moved from Salem's Historic Grand Theatre. If you purchased a ticket through the Grand, present that ticket at our gate and we will honor it.
7 pm. October 12 at Elsinore Theatre.
