Ariel Elias at Church of Satire

Ariel Elias is a comedian living in New York City. Growing up, this Kentucky Jew made everyone laugh at her bat mitzvah, and the rest is history. Today, her comedy is a fun mesh of unique, personal stories mixed with witty and wry observations.

Ariel has been described as “a sly young comic from Kentucky” by the New York Times. She is also a contributing writer to As Goes Wisconsin, a news and politics-based show for, you guessed it, Wisconsin. Notably, she has written for Will Smith’s Snapchat show Will From Home, and performed on the set of Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.

She regularly performs at socially-distanced and relatively safe venues such as rooftops, parks, and parking lots. She is even learning to enjoy zoom. When not performing or writing, she’s probably petting a dog or struggling through a puzzle.
