Bio

Adam Strauss is a stand-up comic whose work has been called many things, mostly adjectives. He also writes stuff, most recently Varieties of Religious Experience, a monologue he will be performing at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August. Adam rose phoenix-like from the hardscrabble, Volvo-lined streets of Newton, Massachusetts in the midst of that city’s crippling hard cider epidemic, defying those who said he’d never amount to more than a cosmetic surgeon or corporate attorney. He currently lives in New York, utterly alone.
