Just For Laughs VANCOUVER presents: An Evening with David Letterman and Zach Galifianakis
A very special and unscripted in-conversation event, between two extraordinary comedy legends.
David Letterman: Over 33 years on late-night television, David Letterman was the longest-running late-night broadcaster in American history. As a writer, performer, and producer, Letterman is one of the most-nominated individuals in Emmy Award® history, with 52 nominations, resulting in 10 wins. Letterman is also a two-time Peabody-Award winner and a Kennedy Center Honoree. Letterman produced the Disney+ docu-special, Bono & The Edge: A Sort of Homecoming, with Dave Letterman (2023). Letterman can currently be seen hosting My Next Guest Needs No Introduction, the Emmy-winning interview show streaming on Netflix, featuring guests including Barack Obama, Tina Fey, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, JAY-Z, Robert Downey Jr., Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Dave Chappelle, Miley Cyrus, Caitlin Clark, Billie Eilish, and Adam Sandler.
Zach Galifianakis: After failing his last college course by one point at North Carolina State University, Zach Galifianakis moved to New York City. He got his start performing his brand of humour in the back of a hamburger joint in Times Square, graduating to doing stand-up in nightclubs and coffee houses across the city. While working as a busboy, he got his first acting job on the sitcom “Boston Common.” An eclectic career has followed.
Zach is most well-known from THE HANGOVER trilogy with additional credits including THE CAMPAIGN, DUE DATE, IT’S A FUNNY KIND OF STORY, DINNER FOR SCHMUCKS, INTO THE WILD and THE BEANIE BUBBLE. Feature animation credits include G-FORCE, RON’S GONE WRONG and most recently LILO AND STITCH. Zach created the critically-acclaimed series “Baskets,” which garnered him an Emmy nomination, and starred in the comedy “Bored to Death.” He also hosted the VH1 talk show “Late World With Zach,” as well as wrote and starred in “Dog Bites Man” for Comedy Central. He hosted the Emmy-winning internet talk show “Between Two Ferns” on which he interviewed such guests as President Barack Obama, Brad Pitt, Steve Carell, Natalie Portman, Conan O’Brien and Justin Bieber.
Zach recurred on season four of “Only Murders in the Building” and next up will be seen in the dark comedy thriller, THE GALLERIST, which will premiere at Sundance this year. He also recently completed production on the upcoming AMC series, THE AUDACITY, as well as the Taika Waititi pilot VERY YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN for FX as ‘Dr. Frankenstein
