Happy Holidays!!!
One call and you'll have no stress at all.
Have you been put in charge of finding entertainment for the upcoming event? This is a time consuming process and can be stressful because it'll be your reputation on the line if things go sideways.
Right?
That's why I'm here.
Whether you're looking for a clean or dark comedy act, professional host or HOLIDAY musician, I have the experience to handle it all with confidence, punctuality and professionalism. I am Alex Elkin, Entertainment Artist. Make it easy on yourself so you can focus on the rest of your event without having to worry about the entertainment. How may I be of service?
Alex did a fantastic job at our event. We had about 75 people attend, including some kids. He masterfully kept the jokes PG-13 enough that the adults were engaged. I have had many many people tell me after the party how great he was and how they have not laughed like that in years. I totally recommend Alex. He was professional, smart and hilarious. Best wished to this guy, and don't be surprised if he becomes hugely famous some day!
Response from Alex Elkin Stand Up Comedian:
Thank you! It was my pleasure to perform for such a fun and energetic group! G'day mates!
So here I am hiring people for a winter valentine event for student leadership council at a college I attended in Oregon and I had realized that I needed comedy to help my fellow students relax and have a good time.... however I was totally weary about crossing school boundaries or offending minorities since the diversity their was large and I was not fully educated on what is considered funny or offensive in other cultures. I spoke with Alex about this and he already knew how to handle such situations... his act was great, awesome mix of funny, mildly raw and witty humor. He really engages with the crowds which I noticed the ppl loved. We got a kick outa him, let me tell ya. I highly reccomend him, he's worth the price!
We took a chance and added stand-up comedy to our long-running summer festival/event. Alex made that interesting idea a brilliant call. He provided our audience with truly world-class comedy – blew us away! Alex Elkin is now our favorite comedian, and I expect a talent that most of our audience will eagerly track (on his inevitable meteoric-rise to comedy stardom).
Hyperbole aside, working with Alex was a joy from first-contact through the the final punchline. Great guy, great material. Don't wait until you can't afford him! Book Alex now!
Response from Alex Elkin Stand Up Comedian:
Thank you so much for the great time and glowing review! Hope to party with you all again!
Alex has a natural finesse that allows him to easily slide into any crowd and create magic. He is outrageously funny with quick wit. He easily assesses a room and picks out anomalies that he casually throws into his stand up act which personalizes the experience. Our entire crew LOVED HIM !
Response from Alex Elkin Stand Up Comedian:
Thank you Tina! So much fun! Have a merry Christmas and a profitable New Year!
I do not do well with strict planning and or schedules and Alex was able to be flexible with last minute happenings. We had positive guest feedback with several people asking if he has a dvd and where they could see other performances. Alex does great with interaction/reading audience/and awesome impromptu ability. We would definitely recommend Alex and plan to attend his performances in the future. (Even our offended guests stated that he is hilarious)
We hired 2 entertainers from gig salad and both performers were great.
Response from Alex Elkin Stand Up Comedian:
Thanks again!
We had several people want to know where to find/hire Alex after our event. He did an amazing job, great performance and was the highlight of our wedding reception.
Response from Alex Elkin Stand Up Comedian:
What a blast! CONGRATULATIONS to you both. Thank you so much for a great night. I just wish there were more chips!
Alex performed at our 11th anniversary party. He was professional, friendly, and most importantly, funny. We highly recommend him!
Response from Alex Elkin Stand Up Comedian:

Hired Alex for a corporate event and he made our event a great success, thanks for a funny and wonderful evening!
Alex did a great job making a less the stellar turnout for out 1st annual fundraiser a memorable experience for our attendees! His crowd interactions and improvised comedy were a hit with the audience and our other vendors. I appreciate sarcasm and appreciate a good joke directed at me! Alex made the most of the event!
Upon talking to Alex I wasn't sure he'd be that funny- he just seemed like a regular guy. But a great regular guy: a good listener, very professional and seemingly very reliable. Could he really be funny too?
Oh. My. Gosh. Our guests were litterally doubled over in laughter. Simply put, he made the night. I'd hire him again in a heartbeat. Already looking forward to his performance at our next family-friendly event. You rock Alex!
Response from Alex Elkin Stand Up Comedian:
Crisi! You are officially the Queen of Halloween! Thank you so much for taking a chance on a regular guy. See you next year!
I hired Alex for a bachelor party in Portland Oregon. Alex was great to work with, had a reasonable rate request and easy communication as we set up the night. We had a private room in a restaurant and ran a little late which he was very patient with. Alex's act was great, about 1 hour long and had us laughing the entire time. with only 12 ppl in the room i was a bit concerned there might be some downtime, but he played it perfectly. I definitely would recommend Alex for a similar style show.
Response from Alex Elkin Stand Up Comedian:
Gordon! This was a great time thank you so much for letting me be a part of it and congratulations to Matt and his new bride. Send me pictures in 14 years to prove that I was right :-)
