Comedy Underground

Hosted by The Dolphin Playhouse

Comedy Underground, who brought us a recent sold out evening in July, is sending us two new comics guaranteed to tickle your funny bone!

Andrea Abbate is a veteran stand-up comedian, television writer, actress, and producer known for her sharp, fearless point of view and dark, personal sense of humor. She has performed on Evening at the Improv and is also a frequent guest on Earthquake’s SiriusXM show, Quake’s House. Abbate has worked alongside comedians including Doug Stanhope, Bill Hicks, Bob Saget, Niecy Nash, Earthquake, Paul Rodriguez, and Adam Carolla.

Beyond stand-up, Andrea has built an extensive career in television, writing and developing projects for HBO, Showtime, ABC, NBC, CBS, AMC, Disney+, and Freeform. Her acting credits include appearances on Full House, The Office, and Rude Awakening. Her comedy draws heavily from life experience, turning difficult, uncomfortable, and often absurd subjects into material that is honest, dark, and genuinely funny. The Los Angeles Times described her humor as “as sweet as a sugar-coated bullet.”

Alex Duffant is a seasoned stand-up comedian and producer with a career that has taken him around the world. He has performed at some of the country’s most respected comedy clubs, including the Hollywood Comedy Store and Hollywood Improv, and was featured as part of the Netflix Is a Joke Festival.

With more than a decade of experience on stage, Duffant brings a seasoned approach to stand-up built around sharp observations, personal experiences, and an unfiltered perspective on everyday life.
