Marc Maron

Legendary comedian, actor, and podcast host Marc Maron brings his sharp wit, brutal honesty, and darkly funny reflections to the stage at the Uptown Theater for Lil’ Rhody Laugh R!ot, Rhode Island’s premier comedy festival. Renowned for his fearless storytelling and deeply personal approach to stand-up, Maron has spent decades carving out a voice that is as thoughtful as it is uncompromising. Marc has released five acclaimed comedy specials, including HBO’s From Bleak to Dark and Netflix’s End Times Fun, earning both Critics Choice and WGA nominations. His stand-up is introspective, raw, and sharply observant, often exploring anxiety, relationships, aging, and the human condition with honesty that resonates far beyond the comedy world. Beyond the stage, Maron is a pioneer of modern podcasting as the creator and host of WTF with Marc Maron, one of the most influential podcasts of all time. With more than 1,600 episodes, the show has featured in-depth conversations with cultural icons including Barack Obama, Keith Richards, and Robin Williams. Join us for an evening with one of comedy’s most influential and respected voices, live at Providence’s beautifully restored Uptown Theater.
