I'd rather regret trying something and failing
than looking back and regretting never
trying it at all...
Al Isaacs has been performing improvisational and stand-up comedy for the past 18 years. Starting and East-Side Comedy in New York he honed his skills alongside the likes of Kevin James (King of Queens) as part of the East Side Players Improv Troupe. His timing couldn't have been better as he cut his teeth working with Ray Romano, Joe Rogan and Jim Breuer just to name a few. For the past 5 years Al has been teaching stand-up / improv comedy at THE BROKERAGE comedy club (read article) and his students have gone on to appear on The Howard Stern Show, as well as television and movie appearances alongside Adam Sandler, Jack Nicholson, Sandra Bullock, and Gary Sinese. He has now moved his class to La Grange in Islip.
Al has been featured on ABC, VH1, MTV, commercials and independent films. But Al's passion lies in front of a live audience. Whether an intimate club setting, a fund raiser in front of hundreds, or a festival before thousands he has proven time and again to adapt, engage, and entertain.
Since he almost lost his Father-In Law in the tragedy of 9/11 Al has devoted himself to helping out charities related to police and fire departments in the New York area. To date he's performed in well over 4 dozen such functions and is always eager to give thanks through laughter to the brave men and women who selflessly protect us.
Al lives in New York with his wife Theresa and son Nick.
