Lewis Black: Comedy Central
built 657 days ago
Lewis has written over 40 plays, and much of his work has been produced around the country. The Deal, a dark comedy about business, was made into a short film in 1998 and picked up by the Sundance Channel. In 2005, Garry Marshall's Falcon Theatre in Los Angeles produced One Slight Hitch, a play that was later seen in 2006 at the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center’s Patel Conservatory. In October 2007, The New York Musical Theatre Festival staged a performance of The Czar of Rock and Roll, a musical he co-wrote with the late Rusty Magee about the rise of an Elvis-type figure in the Soviet Union.

In "Red, White & Screwed," Black returns to his hometown of Washington DC for another stint of hilariously explosive rants. Outspoken and disruptive, Black takes on everything from evolution to politics to the president and his "defeat" of a cedar tree. It's an all-new hour of in-your-face comedy viewers won't want to miss!

Lewis Black declares himself "America's foremost commentator on everything." Not lacking for opinions, this ranting curmudgeon of comedy can be found hosting his very own Back in Black segment on "The Daily Show," espousing his theories on duct tape, Michael Jackson and the value of Crisco as sunscreen.

[O]ut of the blue Schlissel heard a commercial on the local metal station for a Lewis Black show at Minneapolis' Acme Comedy Company. He went to the show -- his first time in a comedy club -- and wrote a loveletter of sorts to Black, which he tucked into a copy of Wide's Hidden Agenda CD Ismist had released a year earlier.

Black's stand/up comedy began as an opening act for the plays as he was ... the master of ceremonies. After a management change at the theater, Black left & began working as a comedian as well as finding bit parts in television & films.
