Liza Treyger is a talented comedian originally from the former Soviet Union, a place where humor often found itself stifled. Seeking a place where her comedic talents could truly flourish, Liza relocated to America and quickly found her niche in the vibrant comedy scene of Chicago. Embracing the city's rich comedic culture, she spent nearly two years as the creator and co-producer of "Riot Comedy," one of Chicago's most beloved weekly showcases. Her comedic prowess and unique perspective soon captured the attention of Comedy Central, earning her a prestigious spot in their "Comics to Watch" showcase during the NY Comedy Festival. This opportunity highlighted her as one of only ten comics selected from hundreds of applicants, a testament to her rising star in the comedy world. Liza's standout performance at the festival subsequently led to her being booked for "America Stands Up" at the Glasgow Comedy Festival. Adding to her accolades, Liza was personally invited by Jeff Garlin to perform at his Winter Comedy Arts Festival in Michigan. Her comedic journey has also included appearances at the Just for Laughs Festival in Chicago, the Bridgetown Comedy Festival, and she eagerly looks forward to her participation in the Mid Atlantic Spring Festival. Liza's comedy is a delightful mix of sharp wit and relatable insights, making her a beloved figure in comedy circuits across the country. Her journey from a place where jokes were hard to come by to becoming a celebrated comedian in the United States is both inspiring and entertaining.
