Erik Angel: Speaking Falafel

Erik Angel is an American-Israeli comedian who is based in New York and travels the world with his Comedy for Peace project and his solo show- Speaking Falafel. Angel's clever and high-energy comedy deals with being an Israeli immigrant during these hard times and a Jewish person forced to speak English 24/7.

Angel performs regularly across the US and has appeared in more than 50 cities so far. He has opened for major headliners including Maz Jobrani and Zarna Garg and performed in more than 12 countries across Europe. He’s appeared on NBC, New York comedy festivals, and has over 3M views on Tik-Tok.

He will arrive in Chicago for the first time as part of his 2025 tour.
