I Am Comic

Retired stand-up comedian Ritch Shydner has been out of the business for more than a decade, but a comeback is on the horizon. Filmmaker Jordan Brady presents a telling character study of Shydner as he prepares, practices new material and confronts his fears of being out of touch with his audience. Behind-the-scenes footage and interviews with famous comedians like Tim Allen, Jim Gaffigan, Sarah Silverman and more offer insight into what works and what doesn't.
