Writer, filmmaker and comedian par excellence, Louis C.K. has been dubbed 'the funniest comedian working in America' by satirist Ricky Gervais and is widely praised for his fearless approach to stand-up.

Making himself the target of his own jokes as often as he skewers the foibles and flaws of people around him, C.K.'s comedy takes self-deprecation and profanity to levels you never knew existed, but which you'll never forget once you've discovered them.

An award-winning writer for Letterman, Conan, and Chris Rock, and the star of the first stand-up comedy film to be accepted into Sundance, C.K.'s take-no-prisoners approach to comedy will leave you gasping for breath and heaving with helpless laughter.
