Gary Gulman:Grandiloquent

Hailed by Esquire as someone who “can make absolutely anything funny” Gary Gulman has established himself as an eminent performer and peerless writer, with a thirty-year career marked by masterful specials, critically acclaimed long-form storytelling, and a singular comedic voice.

Grandiloquent is his hilarious new show about insecurity, empathy, self-acceptance and how a thoughtful boy learned to use humor, reading and writing to cope with the consequences of his parents’ blunders. Learn why a seemingly confident middle-aged man feels most comfortable in a large room where a thousand strangers are laughing at him.

His HBO Max specials—including Born on 3rd Base, praised for its razor-sharp insight into the American wealth divide, and The Great Depresh, a groundbreaking blend of humor and mental-health candor—have secured his place among the most thoughtful comedians of his generation.
