Erik Escobar is a fast-rising comedian with a bold voice, sharp punchlines, and a talent for turning personal chaos into pure comedy gold. As a Filipino-American performer, Erik brings a unique perspective to the stage, blending cultural humor, millennial angst, and deeply relatable life stories into a high-energy act that’s equal parts clever and charming.
He has performed on platforms like NBC, Hulu, Buzzfeed, and TEDx, and even made an appearance on Last Comic Standing and alongside Wayne Brady on Let’s Make a Deal. A graduate of comedy powerhouses UCB, Second City, and iO West, Erik’s material is smart, self-aware, and never afraid to get weird.
