About

  

Larry Smith is a writer, actor, podcaster, voiceover artist, game show host, visual artist, and (most importantly) a standup comedian. He’s headlined The Grove Comedy Club, The Lucky Cat Comedy & Events, Mason City Limits Comedy Club, The Zoo Bar in Lincoln, NE, and for Fox Valley Comedy, along with several other independent venues, rock clubs, and small theaters.

Larry is the creator and host of the game show, that used to be an interview show thanks to the pandemic, “Convince Me with Larry Smith” on NPRIllinois and The Front Row Network. He also cohosts another podcast, “Zig & Larry Ignore a Topic,” born of the pandemic, around out of pure spite now. 

He’s been on The Paul Bunyan Comedy Festival and SnoJam Comedy Festival, has been featured by Huffington Post, NPRIllinois, selected by The Illinois Times several years as one of their favorite comedians, and was on Zanies Rosemont’s Tuesday Ten multiple times.

Reena Calm has called him a “one-of-a-kind talent that brings so much good energy to every stage” and “an amazing comic.” Chris Speyrer, owner of Mason City Limits says, “you make it look effortless up there,” and fellow comedian Andy Landgrebe described Larry’s act as “a calm walk through a forest of joy.”

Nice things people have said

Chris Speyrer - Owner of Mason City Limits Comedy Club

"You make it look effortless up there. You're just you being you, no schtick, no frills, and you're hilarious while you're doing it."

Bill Adams - Owner The Grove Comedy Club

"Hey! He IS funny!"

Chris Schlichting - Comedian - Producer Tomfoolery on Tremont at The Renwick Mansion

 “Larry Smith is easily one of my favorite Midwest comics right now. When I first watched Larry perform my immediate thought was 'Why don’t more people know about this guy?' A professional on and off the stage, Larry makes me want to be a better comic.” 

Reena Calm - Comedian - Author - Genius

  "Larry Smith is a one of a kind talent and brings so much good energy to every stage. He's an amazing comic AND producer, and it's rare to be truly good at both. He's a man of many talents, on stage and off, and a helluva good friend. Don't miss your chance to have a genuinely great time any time you're around this man." 

Andy Landgrebe - Comedian

  "Your act is a calm walk through a forest of joy. Both beautiful and funny."
