ROBBY HOFFMAN
As a queer, ex-Chasidic, Canadian/American woman who writes and performs comedy, there is no one else like Robby Hoffman.
After a childhood in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, Robby began her career as a writer in Toronto, working on Baroness Von Sketch (IFC) and Catherine Reitman’s Workin’ Moms (Netflix). Robby also wrote for several seasons of the children’s show Odd Squad (airing on PBS in US), for which she won an Emmy for Outstanding Writing for a Children’s Show. After relocating to Los Angeles, Robby began to write for Tru TV’s The Chris Gethard Show.
Robby also has a booming career as a standup comedian; last month, New York Magazine named Robby “One of the Comedians You Should (and Will) Know in 2020.” She has also been spotlighted as one of Comedy Central’s UpNext generation of standup talent, as well as a “Comic to Watch,” at the New York Comedy Festival. Her one-woman show, I’m Nervous, premiered as a one-hour comedy special on Crave TV (Canada) in 2019.
JARED GOLDSTEIN is most recently a 2022 Just for Laughs New Face + chosen as one of Vulture’s Comedians to Know. He can currently be seen on Roku’s NIKKI FRE$H, starring as Nicole Richie’s trusty right hand and assistant, as well as starring in season 2 of DOLLFACE on Hulu and the final season of THE UNICORN on CBS. Additionally, Jared’s standup premiered in this past group of Comedy Central’s FEATURING, and in 2019 he was chosen as one of New York Comedy Festival Comics to Watch as well as Time Out’s Comedians to Watch. Jared participated in the 2020 CBS Diversity Showcase. Previously, he has appeared on ABC’s Modern Family, COUNTERPART with JK Simmons for Starz, RIZZOLI & ISLES, and the feature film IT’S KIND OF A FUNNY STORY starring Zach Galifianakis. Originally from Long Island, he’s additionally appeared in an SNL sketch written by Tina Fey featuring Jimmy Fallon as well as the Off-Broadway production of Spring Awakening and the Broadway production of A Christmas Carol at Madison Square Garden.
