Disclaimer Underground Comedy presents comedian Paul Strickland at Elaine’s Piano Bar for free.

Nationally touring comedian and storyteller Paul Strickland has been accused of being “seriously funny,” but his work is best described as “funny seriously.”  Though generally unimpressed with the world around him, Paul knows that if you look at anything long enough, you can find something to appreciate.  A prolific writer of stories and jokes, Strickland tours the country 45+ weeks a year entertaining, letting people buy him dinner and generally living the raconteur lifestyle: “I firmly believe that making people laugh at themselves and think in a new way about their world is a good way to help them escape while, hopefully, gaining some perspective on what they’re escaping from, and distracting them from the fact that I just took their money.”
