In the wake of a string of anti-Semitic rhetoric pointed in his direction online, standup comic Edelman decides to go straight to the source; specifically, Queens, where he covertly attends a meeting of White Nationalists and comes face-to-face with the people behind the keyboards. What happens next forms the backbone of the shockingly relevant, utterly hilarious, and only moderately perspirant stories that comprise Just For Us.
Just for Us has performed to acclaimed runs in London, Edinburgh, Melbourne, Boston, and Washington D.C., as well as a six-time extended off-Broadway engagement across three venues in New York City.
All profits from the show will go to the Adam Brace Award
In May this year it was announced with deep sadness director Adam Brace had died following a short illness at the age of 43. Adam was a director (including of all of Alex Edelman’s shows), co-creator, dramaturg, script editor and writer and Associate Director of Soho Theatre. A festival staple, Adam’s presence is very much missed at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival by family, friends, colleagues and collaborators.
