Hey, That’s Our Lunch Money: Clara Olshansky and Michael Abber’s Half Hours
Brooklyn comedians Michael Abber and Clara Olshansky split an hour of standup comedy. They’re excited to bring their queer comedy by and for the picked-last-in-gym class types to Philadelphia. Michael Abber is a very loud comedian/not-for-profit cabaret artist. He has performed his dog-and-pony-show in the New York Comedy Festival and Netflix is a Joke Festival, and as a director, his work has been featured in the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. But none of this in a fancy way. Clara Olshansky is a comedian and writer you may know from OnlyFans’ LMAOF, NYC Pride Fest, or from that time Cara Delevingne commented on their Instagram reel.
