ABOUT
Iliza Shlesinger is on fire and taking no prisoners! In what has been a whirlwind rise to popularity in the last few years, she's the only female to have won the title of NBC's Last Comic Standing, her debut comedy special Warpaint was one of the most downloaded comedy specials on Itunes and Netflix picked up her follow up Freezing Hot, a hilarious stand-up special that showcases her high-energy observational routine and sparky digs at the gender divide.
From her expressive body language to her 'Party Goblin' persona, Iliza knows how to own a stage and how to mock all things human. Shlesinger is bold, brash and hysterical as she confronts the age-old myths that surround womanhood. Her humor puts a fresh spin on the mars/venus debate while her ballsy observations cover everything from what it means to be a 30-something single woman on the town to ignoring the mischievous "party goblin" that comes out to play when she drinks.
on Saturday, December 13th from 8–10 PM. This limited-seating event features local celebrity Whitney Myer Arroyo in a cozy, candlelit setting surrounded by curated gallery art.
With a living room concert feel and a touch of class, Candlelit Sessions offers a unique night of music, atmosphere, and artistic inspiration. A bar will be available—please note, no food is served. Come early, settle in, and let the music move you.
