After a critically-acclaimed, sell-out run of Just For Us at Steppenwolf, comedian Alex Edelman returns with another hilarious and thought-provoking dissection of identity: What Are You Going to Do. This all-new show finds the Bostonian sweetheart asking different and more unsettling questions. Primarily, should he spend his time doing something else? Should he be saving lives like his physician father? Should he be trying to return to the sense of community he experienced growing up among Israelis and Palestinians? In a show that reckons with the effects of time spent in trauma, Edelman deftly weaves in and out of examinations of faith broadly—not just Judaism—and wonders if, perhaps, there might be better things out there for him.
