Alan Lebetkin is an up and coming young comedian known for his offbeat perspective and razor-sharp wit. Born and raised in North Carolina, Alan’s early heroes were great Southern humorists such as Mark Twain and David Sedaris. Bold, opinionated comedians like Richard Pryor and Bill Hicks later drew him to stand-up comedy. Alan is a hard worker and dedicated comedian who performs almost every night. He constantly works on new material and rarely will perform the same set twice.
Alan graduated from Duke University with degrees in English and film. After moving to Los Angeles, he quickly became an in-house comedy writer at the prestigious Upright Citizens Brigade and iO West theaters. In addition to stand-up, Alan’s comedy resume includes improv, sketch, multimedia, videos, and producing live shows.
Alan continues to earn praise for his strong writing talent, and ability to connect with diverse audiences.

About me: I’m a comedy writer, stand-up comic, I.T. guy, and kind of awkward. I’m available for bar mitzvahs in any capacity.
My Open Mic List
I publish a complete list of open mics for the greater Los Angeles area, including the Valley and Orange County. Before introducing the Open Mic List in late 2007, comedians relied on inaccurate data from outdated websites like Chucklemonkey.com.

I promise to use the money wisely. My lab in the basement needs more sea monkeys, and I think I broke the 3rd Switch again. NOT the THIRD switch!!!
