about the show

Alex Edelman’s third solo show, Just For Us, takes the audience through hilarious anecdotes from his life — his Olympian brother AJ, an unconventional holiday season, and a gorilla that can do sign language — but at its center is an astonishing and frighteningly relevant story. After a string of anti-Semitic abuse is directed at Edelman online, he decides to covertly attend a gathering of White Nationalists in New York City and comes face to face with the alt-right abusers. The result is a hair-raising encounter that gives Just For Us its title and final, jaw-dropping twist.

"Critics’ Pick! Belly-laugh funny! A brisk, smart provocation of a monologue.”
— The New York Times

“Uproarious. Among Edelman’s many strengths as a writer and performer is an exceptional eye for the absurd.”
— The New Yorker
