  IAN ABRAMSON

PRESS

"The regular on the standup scene has lately been running around town staging madcap pranks. In one, he put a comedian on trial for bombing onstage; in another, he concocted a funeral for a vaudevillian prop comic who died unexpectedly at age 130. He cranked up the dial to full-tilt bizarro a third time in May when he forced half a dozen standup comics to perform to an empty room while an audience watched elsewhere via live streaming."
-Chicago Magazine

"Bizarre. A native of California’s Inland Empire, Abramson delights in nonsensical one-liners, time-bending pranks, and lots of tomfoolery."
-Chicago Magazine

"Chicago's merry prankster of absurdist, high-concept tomfoolery."
-The Chicago Tribune

"(Andy Kaufman – real life meanness) + (Mitch Hedberg – drug additiction) = Ian Abramson"
-Brightest Young Things

“Ian Abramson probably had the tightest set of the night. His jokes were really well-paced and his timing was on point. His bit about a Target t-shirt got a "large" response from the audience.”
-Gapers Block

"Hi Charlie." -Charlie Rohrer
