Alex Edelman’s JUST FOR US marks the writer-comedian’s Broadway stage debut

“Just For Us” is now on Broadway this summer following acclaimed international runs in London, Edinburgh, Melbourne, Boston, and Washington D.C., as well as a six-time extended off-Broadway engagement across three venues in New York City, which earned a “Critic’s Pick” from The New York Times, a 2023 Obie Award, and nominations by the Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Awards.

Alex Edelman is a comedian and writer whose modern Orthodox Jewish upbringing has informed critically and commercially acclaimed work for the stage and screen. He is known both for his solo shows – three, all award-winning, sell-out hits in London’s West End and the Edinburgh Fringe Festival – and for his TV writing.

At the start of the pandemic, he served as the head writer and executive producer of Saturday Night Seder, a star studded 70-minute special, posted on YouTube, that has so far raised 3.5 million dollars for the CDC Foundation COVID-19 Emergency Response Fund.

Alex stopped off at the NYC VIBE midtown studios to talk about performing on Broadway, his material, engaging with his audience and where he draws his inspiration from….

At the age of 34, Alex is cherishing every night on stage knowing even the greatest performers come and go – this is his opportunity to build on his energy, wisdom and yearning to learn from the best and still be himself for the audiences to enjoy for years to come.
