Comedy Central Presents

Carol Leifer is back on stage, bringing her seasoned, relaxed observational style to a quick half-hour. Instead of leaning on typical setup-punchline structures, she relies on her years of TV-writing experience to construct tight, conversationally delivered bits about her personal life. The centerpiece of her set tackles the transition from dating men to finding love with a woman later in life. She delivers one of her most famous lines here: comparing making love to a woman to buying real estate, where everything boils down to “location, location, location”.\n\nFilmed at the Hudson Theatre in New York City, the 2003 performance came at a time when Leifer was primarily known behind the scenes for her work on Seinfeld and The Larry Sanders Show. Her return to the stand-up stage serves as a reminder of her foundational club-comic roots. She also touches on more morbid fare, like her own near-death experiences, with the same casual, dry delivery that earned her 25 appearances on David Letterman’s late-night stage.
