About the show

Leah Rudick has close to two million people following her for characters she invented and then refused to apologize for. Wealthy Woman. Joannie. Love Coach. She writes them, plays them all herself, and lets them run a little longer than is comfortable.

Deadline put her on its Top 20 Comics to Watch list for 2026. Her debut hour, Spiraling, landed in 2023 and is streaming on Amazon and Apple TV. On screen she has appeared in High Maintenance on HBO, Commuters on IFC and Crowd Control on Dropout. She co-wrote and co-starred in the web series Made to Order and the indie feature Sweet Parents, which took awards at several festivals. She started out doing sketch in New York and is based in Los Angeles now.

She is here for one Sunday only, downstairs at 61 York, in a low room where you tap the lamp on your table and a server appears. Doors open an hour before the show and the kitchen is on. The late set is a different crowd than the early one, so pick your Sunday accordingly.
