Olensandr Ellert

Olesandr Ellert is a Ukrainian comedian learning how to survive in America - one joke, one mistake, and one credit card payment at a time. His English isn’t perfect, but that’s the point.

Before moving to the U.S., Ellert was a scriptwriter for Kvartal 95 - yes, the same legendary Ukrainian comedy studio where Volodymyr Zelenskyy once performed before becoming president. A winner and finalist of many comedy shows in Ukraine, Ellert now brings his sharp wit, charming accent, and fearless humor to American audiences. This is a rare chance to see him perform in English - and discover why laughter, just like love, doesn’t need translation.

Check out Ellert on the following shows:
