Iliza Shlesinger is an award-winning comedian, actor, writer, producer and author, selling out theaters around the globe with a devoted fan base who are known for creating their own Iliza-inspired swag to wear to her shows. Iliza coined the term "Elder Millennial" in her eponymous 2018's Elder Millennial, which is also the subject of Iliza Shlesinger: Over & Over, her "fan-u-mentary" giving fans an inside look into her life on tour. Her other specials are Unveiled (2019), Confirmed Kills (2016), Freezing Hot (2015) and War Paint (2013).
In 2022, Netflix released her 6th stand-up special Hot Forever and her second book All Things Aside was published.
Her podcast, AIA: Ask Iliza Anything on Earwolf is a fan favorite and features Iliza giving out her barefaced life advice to fans' questions. Next, she'll launch Iliza's Locals a three-episode series highlighting 18 of her favorite L.A. comedians. The series will stream exclusively on the 800 Pound Gorilla platform April 4 before moving over to YouTube April 28.

Other credits include, Instant Family, starring Wahlberg and Rose Byrne, and The Iliza Shlesinger Sketch Show, a comedy series she created and starred in for Netflix.
In March 2020, in response to the pandemic, she and her husband, Chef/James Beard Award nominated author Noah Galuten, launched Don't Panic Pantry as a way to encourage people to stay at home and flatten the curve.

It has been featured TODAY Show, The Talk, and has been sponsored by companies like Le Creuset, Dansk and Bob's Red Mill. The Don't Panic Pantry Cookbook published in January of 2023.
Iliza's first book, Girl Logic: The Genius and the Absurdity (Hachette Book Group) was a subversively funny collection of essays offering her unique perspective on women's behavior.

She lives in Los Angeles, California with her husband Noah, their newborn daughter Sierra Mae and their Chinese rescue dog, Tian Fu.
Loved the show, Iliza is smart, funny, authentic and just plain hilarious!
While I’ve seen virtually all the work Iliza has produced to date (network specials, Netflix sketch series and movies) as well as her last live tour, this show was as anticipated: exceptionally hilarious - intelligent, fresh content flawlessly delivered. Unlike other comics who experience tremendous success but seem to become “hit & miss” in their performances - for whatever reason(s) - Iliza continues her trajectory presenting audiences with side-splitting comedy that continues to evolve never leaving us with anything less than hysterical anecdotes that land every time.
It was more serious and shocking than funny. Plus the catch phrases were common with #. She was more to the point of making social commentary.
I knew I really liked her and seen many of her Netflix specials, but hadn't seen anything recently so I was hesitant to spend $100 for balcony seating. The show was part of the Just For Laughs comedy Festival in Toronto am I am SOOO happy I went. I've been going through a rough time and she brought me laughter and joy through hilarious material that I could relate to as well as early motherhood. She snuck in some classic gremlin moments and conscious comedy too. The opener (sorry I forgot his name!) was really amazing too. We were a few min late but were able to pick up all the jokes. I'll be looking up more of his stuff as well.
Iliza doesnt disappoint and was one of the funniest shows ive been too. Meridian Hall is a great venue too, quick service and entry
The show didn’t disappoint. Iliza was on point and as always hysterically funny. We did the meet and greet after the show and got some cool pictures #ugly bra, #makeitpretty
Absolutely brilliant !!! Would see her again in a heartbeat!!!!!
We laughed just like we thought we would. Iliza puts so much energy into her performance. There was something for everyone.
We really enjoyed our night out to see Iliza's Back in Action tour! This was my 2nd time seeing her live and she did not disappoint. Looking forward to seeing her upcoming Netflix special that will no doubt feature some of the jokes and stories she shared with her that night. If you love comedy, see Iliza. Hands down. Her opening act was solid as well!
Such a good performance. Non stop laughs and super funny right until the end. Opening act was great as well.
