STANDUP
Antonia's comedy exploded on the Jewish internet with her viral videos about Jewish life. But wait, she’s so much more than just a Jewish comedian: she also does comedy about gastrointestinal problems.
She recently received the Mandel Fellowship for her Jewish standup comedy. You can catch her performing standup around LA or at your mom’s shul. In 2014, she wrote a bio that said her greatest muse was “tummy aches,” which was devastatingly prophetic.
Antonia is currently booking a tour of synagogues! To book her at your mom’s shul, email bookantonialassar@gmail.com
THE BEST JEW
Catch Antonia’s new Jewish standup hour— touring to a synaogue near you!
THE BEST JEW is a groundbreaking new solo show from a comedian who is constantly asked when she's going to Rabbinical school. From the Reform movement's obsession with the word "meaningful," to Chabad's menorah distribution cartels, to whether Debbie Friedman is actually the Messiah-- this show has something for everyone who's ever met a Jew. Also, everyone has to sing.
YENTA!
Listen to the Yenta Podcast! Catch Antonia cohosting the world-famous podcast that’s sometimes about Jews, sometimes about comedy, and always about gossip. Cohosted with Raye Schiller, the Yentas have interviewed comedy geniuses like Dylan Adler, Ariel Elias, Gabe Dunn, and Sammi Cohen, director of the acclaimed You're So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzvah.
From managing chest binder acid reflux to exploring the allure of Jewish MILFs, the topics are as diverse as the guests themselves. The show is targeted at fans of standup comedy, Judaism, and queers... because EVERYONE LOVES GOSSIP!
POST TRAUMATIC SUPER DELIGHTFUL
The lives of survivors, perpetrators, and bystanders weave together in a wickedly funny and piercingly insightful one-woman show about a community trying to heal after a sexual assault. Post Traumatic Super Delightful (PTSD) is a groundbreaking theatrical program about the sexual assault crisis on college campuses. The play began its development with All For One Theater‘s SoloLab and Works In Progress Series and made its world premiere at The Kraine Theater in New York City in the 9th Annual FRIGID New York Festival. PTSD has been on a national tour of colleges, including Middlebury College, Goshen College, and Rice University. PTSD has subsequently been featured in Marie Claire Magazine, worked with Glamour Magazine’s Top Ten College Women Program, and been the keynote speaker at the Minnesota Association for the Treatment of Sexual Abusers conference.
GOD BOX
God Box is a solo theatre piece about a Jewish mom discovering her that her daughter isn’t a practicing Jew. The show has toured for over 8 years, including to Yale, Rice, Boston University, and the acclaimed New Repertory Theatre in Massachuetts. Antonia has performed God Box for interfaith audiences in churches, synagogues, colleges, and living rooms.
“Antonia is a virtuoso at embodying honest characters. She is also a highly skilled facilitator of the post-show dialogue. This is a rare opportunity–and a real treat.”
