An Evening with Alex Edelman
The Tony and Emmy Award–winning comedian brings his razor-sharp storytelling to the JCCSF for a special evening of stand-up and conversation
The Pritzker Family Lecture
Join us for an unforgettable evening with comedian and writer Alex Edelman, one of the most original and compelling voices in comedy today.
Best known for his Tony Award–winning solo show Just for Us, Edelman blends incisive humor with deeply personal storytelling – exploring identity, belonging, and what it means to be Jewish in a complicated world. His work is both laugh-out-loud funny and quietly profound, moving seamlessly between comedy and reflection.
This special Pritzker Family Lecture begins with a stand-up performance, followed by an onstage conversation that goes deeper into Edelman’s creative process, influences, and the questions at the heart of his work.
Smart, surprising, and deeply human – this is comedy that lingers long after the final punchline.
Tony and Emmy Award–winning Alex Edelman’s acclaimed solo show Just for Us played more than 500 performances worldwide before premiering as an HBO comedy special. He was named to the Time 100 list and has appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Late Night with Seth Meyers, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, and more.
Made possible through the generosity of the Lisa Stone Pritzker Family Foundation and the John Pritzker Family Fund.
