Lewis Black has found his niche in comedy to stand out from the rest. His skits usually start with him rambling about a topic and progress into a hilarious angry rant. If you have seen Disney Pixar's Inside Out, he unsurprisingly is the voice of Anger. He is generally called bitter. However, there can be fun in bitterness. As an established comedian for decades now, Lewis knows where to look for that, making people ask for more.
Before his breakthrough in the 90s, Lewis was already a seasoned comedian. While studying for playwriting, he was doing stand-up skits as a sideline. When he graduated, his career began in playwriting. From 1981 to 1989, he wrote hundreds of one-act plays. He did stand-up opening acts for his plays. After the 80s, he left work and started performing comedy full-time. In 1998, he got the opportunity to have his special as part of Comedy Central Presents. The following years were of him getting more and more popular. He did more specials and toured extensively. One of the highlights of his career was winning "Best Comedy Album" at the 2007 Grammy Awards.
At the Eccles Theater in Salt Lake City, Utah, Lewis Black will rant his way to laughter. Catch him live on Saturday, February 11, 2023. Reserve your tickets now!
