Speaking Falafel

Erik Angel is an Israeli-Jewish-American international comedian who moved to New York a few years ago and quickly made a name for himself. He has performed in over 80 cities across the U.S. and in 12 countries worldwide. Angel has opened for major headliners like Maz Jobrani and Zarna Garg, appears regularly at top comedy clubs across the country, and has been featured twice in the New York Comedy Festival and a few more.

He is also the founder of Comedy for Peace—a touring interfaith show that brings Jewish, Muslim and Christian comedians together on one stage. His work has been featured on NBC and his comedy clips have earned over 3 million views on TikTok.

Angel’s style is sharp, high-energy, and full of surprises, combining clever writing with seamless crowd work. His material draws from his life as a recent immigrant, a newlywed, a late-discovered Jew, and someone who speaks fluent English-Falafel around the clock.
