Paul Farahvar

Chicago based Comedian Farahvar delights audiences with his unique, quick witted dry humor, centered on being an aging bachelor and former litigator. After quickly becoming a staple on the Chicago Comedy Scene for years at his home club Laugh Factory, he began touring, first as a feature for headliners like Demetri Martin and Gary Gulman, and later as a headliner. With no manager or agent, he managed to build a following in multiple cities, even selling out rooms in Chicago, Rockford, Denver, Milwaukee, Scottsdale, Sarasota and Tampa in the last two years. When he is not headlining he travels with Dusty Slay and Bret Ernst as their handpicked feature.

He was runner up in the Chicago Reader for Best Stand up Comedian in 2021 and was voted "Top 40 Up and Coming Comedians" in 2017. Prior to being a comedian, Farahvar was a trial litigator, earning the "Top 40 under 40" honor in Illinois. His podcast SINGLES ONLY! was invited to SWSW in 2020 and was voted Best Podcast in Chicago (2021). He was a regular guest host on WGN Radio for years and played "Karam Haddad" on NBC's "Chicago Med." His Dry Bar special "Always a Groomsman" dropped in April, 2023 and his special "Middlewestern, Middle Eastern" with Helium Comedy Studios dropped in April, 2024. He was one of two Americans invited to the Halifax Comedy Festival in May, 2024
