Indigo Comedy Night with Ariel Elias

With host Thomas Attila Lewis and featured support from Hoodo Hersi.
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.
Described as “a sly young comic from Kentucky” by ‘The New York Times,’ Ariel has also been featured in ‘Rolling Stone,’ ‘The Washington Post,’’ and on Good Morning America.’ She was named as ‘Paste Magazine’s’ Best Comedians of 2022.
After catching Jimmy Kimmel’s attention with a viral stand-up clip that displayed her cool, calm, and hilarious composure, he invited Ariel to make her late night television debut on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ In 2024, she followed it up with an appearance on ‘The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.’
