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.
Iliza wrote and starred in the Netflix Rom-Con movie Good On Paper and played opposite Mark Wahlberg in the #1 Netflix film Spenser Confidential. She also appeared in the critically acclaimed indie drama Pieces of a Woman with Vanessa Kirby. 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. The fun, follow-along at-home cooking show streamed live via Iliza's Instagram and Facebook page with more than 250 episodes. 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 recently guest hosted Jimmy Kimmel Live and previously hosted her own limited run late night talk show Truth & Iliza on Freeform. She is the only female and youngest comedian to hold the title of NBC's Last Comic Standing.
Iliza regularly supports a variety of causes including Team Rubicon, Cystic Fibrosis, various environmental causes, and has performed abroad several times with the USO.
She lives in Los Angeles, California with her husband Noah, their newborn daughter Sierra Mae and their Chinese rescue dog, Tian Fu.
I was blown away. As a fan it was even better than I expected.
Even the opener was hilarious, and I usually don't care for opening acts. Iliza Schlesinger is exactly what you expect, if you love her on Netflix you'll love her live, but she's not recycling old material, it's all new (with the occasional callback for the diehard fans). We had a really great time.
She is amazing, the show was hilarious!! I cant wait to see her live again!!
Iliza was great (not surprised), the opener was great, the seats were fairly comfortable (and there were cupholders!), and there were plenty of helpful staff.
We had a problem with our parking pass which got resolved very quickly, we got to our seats very easily which were in excellent viewing distance. Iliza's MC/opener was really good and complimented her performance very well. I though it could have been a bit longer though.
She was amazing!!! I was star struck to see her live, and she was just as amazing and funny as I had hoped!!!
I don't mind admitting that I usually don't find female comedians to be that funny but Iliza is a rare bird in that department for sure. Well worth the price of admission.
I felt the jokes were way to long about large breasts that went on forever and the man bringing the qoman home which also went on forever. It was most of the show. It was boring and it also got very political which is not the place for a show. Do your politics on social media or talk show bit not at a place where I paid to hear comedy and escape the everyday news.
She was very entertaining. She was particularly great for the ladies.
The best one yet !! Iliza is so refreshingly silly with a golden thread of a message woven throughout her act. Brilliant.
My girlfriend and I had a great time. Iliza is a true professional.
I have followed Iliza since she won best new comic on the NBC show, but I found this show to be not very funny and she seemed to spend most of her act “yelling” at the audience like she was angry and worked up. Her different bits dragged on too long and she seemed to spend more time preaching and being political, then being funny.
Go see her walk don’t run. Her show is good for men and woman and she has done all the work to ensure a great night is had by all. Her opener Hunter was a great start to what was a fabulous evening.
Iliza was hilarious and even better live than in her Netflix specials which are also amazing! The Jubilee Auditorium desperately needs to remodel their seating system as you are essentially cuddling everyone beside you weather you know them or not. Performance: 12/10 Venue: 5/10
I went with a couple of girlfriends and we had such a blast! She was so so funny. Would definitely go again
Honestly she's so awesome. This was such a great show, I don't think I've seen a single comedy show she's done that I didn't like. I will 100% be back she's amazing.
Iliza was amazing. My best friend and I have been waiting to see her since we were teenagers, and it was everything we hoped it would be and more. As a fan, I'm so proud of Iliza and how she uses her platform to speak about what matters to her.
Such a great and funny performance, so glad I kept the tickets and could experience it
AMAZING. Iliza absolutely killed it. I laughed, I learned, I love, and was left feeling ever so full. A truly wonderful show full of laughter but also acceptance and female empowerment. Hell friggen yeah baby.
The show was originally supposed to be in April 2020, so we waited a long time to see her, and I was unsure if I would still be into it. She blew it out of the water, hilarious show, she killed it.
