Coachella Valley Improv/Comedy Festival - Palm Springs, Ca With: Stand Up and Comedy Workshop May 21, 2021 Guest spot at 7pm of comedy as last years winner, Best Stand Up Comic . Also from 11am-1pm I'll host a workshop on "The Business of Show Business!"
After years of steady work in film and television, and over 150 credits on his IMDB page, actor and comedian Jason Stuart has achieved a pinnacle of success many actors only dream of. “For the last few years, people have started to approach me and say, ‘You’re that guy,’” he explains with his characteristic gravelly laugh. Indeed, with guest-starring and supporting credits in everything from the Billy Bob Thornton starrer "Goliath" to Judd Apatow’s “Love” to “Sleepy Hollow” to “Tangerine” and “The Birth of a Nation,” Stuart has now established himself as one of those all-too-familiar faces who might just pop up anywhere, in any kind of role.
It’s just the latest remarkable but true chapter in the career of Stuart, a longtime veteran of stand-up comedy, born in the Bronx and raised in the Fairfax district of Los Angeles. A self-described insecure Jewish kid who turned to theatre and performing to mask his emerging sexual identity - he jokes about going to see Barbra Streisand in “Funny Girl” as a youth and falling in love with Omar Sharif. His talent and determination got him some early professional work in films like “Kindergarten Cop,” “Vegas Vacation,” and TV shows like “Murder, She Wrote” and “The Drew Carey Show.” But by the early-90s, frustrated by years of living in the closet, Stuart chose to come out publicly on an episode of Geraldo Rivera’s talk show focused on “Unconventional Comedians.”
That led to a wave of interest in Stuart as a “gay comedian,” giving his act new material and energy, and a purpose (his sexuality, as a Los Angeles Times article from 1995 states, is “a full-time job”). Today, Stuart marvels at how much has changed about the visibility of sexually diverse actors and celebrities, having experienced the transition from “closeted” to “gay” to “queer.” “That was such a negative word, ‘queer,’” he says. “It was a word ‘they’ would call you and it still takes some getting used to, but I can see how things are changing. And of course, I’m not just gay or queer, it’s just a part of who I am: I’m also a Jew, a man of a certain age, a lover, a friend and a son. But it’s always a part of who I am.”
Just as his identity as a gay man has not fully defined his career, Stuart is also proud of how he has kept his reputation as a comedian while still flourishing as an actor. “I’ve always thought about myself as an actor first, comedian second,” he says. “When I think of what I want to do with the next phase of my career, I think about being a great character actor. I revered the late Philip Seymour Hoffman, his ability to always disappear into his characters, no matter the role. He was a character actor who happened to be a movie star.”
A look at Stuart’s most recent work underscores this, notably playing a similar part – a detective in a crime drama – in two wildly different ways. In the action film “Abducted,” he plays a police sidekick – “My version of J. K. Simmons or Paul Giamatti,” he explains citing two more character actor role models. “I played him like my brother, who has been slightly irritated his entire life.” On the other side of the coin is the private detective character Stuart creates in Jon Dabach’s “Immortal,” a new thriller co-starring Samm Levine and Dylan Baker. “He’s much more powerful and intimidating.”
For Stuart, one of the most significant moments in his recent career was being cast as Joseph Randall, one of the villainous plantation owners at the wrong end of a rebellion in Nate Parker’s searing historical drama, “The Birth of a Nation.” Being cast by Parker was a sign for Stuart that he had turned the corner from funny gay comic to established character actor. “I remember Nate saying to me that part of what he wanted was my activism,” he recalls. “He wanted advocates for different communities, and he knew that I’d represented not just the LGBTQ community, but I’ve worked on behalf of Black Lives Matter, the homeless, youth, and Jewish causes.”
At the same time, taking on the role of an empowered racist in 1831 Virginia also allowed Stuart to reflect on his own evolving complex identity. “How can I be gay and Jewish and have white privilege?” he found himself wondering through working on Parker’s film. “It helped me establish this new part of my career, and it changed me as an actor and a human being,” he says of the experience. “To tell the history of this man, Nat Turner, who had the audacity, tenaciousness and self-esteem as a black man, in 1831, to stand up against his slave owners knowing he would be murdered. Is he mentally ill? A martyr? Touched by God? To be part of that story, to work with talented people like Nate Parker and Armie Hammer, was exactly what I wanted my career to be about.”
These days, Stuart keeps his comedy chops polished through stand-up gigs all over the country as well as his speaking tour "Coming Out in Hollywood: Being out in the workplace". He continues to serve as the National Co-Chairman of the SAG-AFTRA LGBTQ Committee(which he created), and has a memoir about to be published from CCB Publishing (“Shut Up, I’m Talking!”) He’s also just completed a number of projects, including a new comedy web series “Smothered,” co-created with Mitch Hara; He also played the title role in the short “Hank” from director Hongyu Li and co-starring Jay Disney, about a gay couple who consider an open relationship, which continues to earn praise at numerous festivals, including winning the Best LGBTQ Short at this year’s Los Angeles International Film Festival.
“It’s still a challenge to get the next great role,” he says of his passion for acting as a career. “When I was a kid there were three networks, the movies, and the theatre. Now there’s a hundred networks, movies that stream on your phones, and theatres, and TV, and pay-per-view, and social media…so how does someone know you?” he asks. For now, he’s happy enough to take on any role and thrive. “Someone recognized me from both ‘My Wife and Kids’ and ‘The Birth of a Nation,’ and they said, ‘You’re that guy! We used to love you, now we hate you because you play all these villains!’ I’m the guy who can do that – I’m ‘that guy!’”

PAUL ELIA, just off the plane from Detroit with very few credits, feels like this is the beginning.ALEXANDRA PAUL, Baywatch babe with infinity credits, feels they’re both ready for a mental institution!
All three have decided to take their careers into their own hands and do a show about what they know best. Themselves.
This is their story.
This 6 episode web series is a heartfelt true-to-life comedy/drama about a middle aged, gay, Jewish man and a straight, starry eyed kid who find friendship….without sex.

LECTURER
From Bullied to Ballsey How to Make the Leap from Victim to Victor
BEING GAY IN A PERSONALLY POWERFUL WAY!
As a young child, I was bullied, and often. I was a young gay boy in the 80’s, so being bullied on a daily basis was a regrettable part of my early life.
As a young gay man, I was repeatedly told to “stay in my lane”, “keep my head down”, and “stay behind the scenes” by family and friends. At that time, it was a matter of life and death (which regretfully, it often still is in some places today) and being “openly gay” just wasn’t the safe way to go.
Well, times have changed, and so have I. Holding my head down is no longer an option (really, after 1 year of that it was impossible). Anyone who knows me knows I don’t do quiet well. Life is more open and diverse now, being gay is way more acceptable, But that doesn’t mean it’s easy at first or any sort of a cake walk for anyone as they start to discover and/or embrace that they are gay. For some, it is easy. For most, it is not.
I am now a loud, proud, openly gay, liberal Jewsh man. I grew up wanting to be an actor and comedian, At that time, my dreams had no place to go. I had no one to look up to. I had no direction to understand. There were no openly gay characters on TV or in film. 40 years ago, I did not exist in a category I knew I wanted to be a part of. And now I stand before you proud to say I have over 250 credits in my IMDB profile (that’s “Hollywood talk” for my resume).
Achieving my Hollywood dreams came with struggle, challenges and many complications and setbacks along the way. I’m here to help you understand how to release all of your excess, ancient baggage that comes from being bullied, fear that comes with feeling like you don’t fit in, and early societal shame attached to sexuality.
Let me inspire you and your group to understand how to go from bullied to ballsey, and move from victim to victor in 5 transformative steps.

My Dad, who passed a few years ago, was a Jewish immigrant who always said to me (in a thick Polish accent), “When you go to the interview, wear a tie and show them you mean business”. I took that to mean, “Be your best self”. And that’s whom I strive to be. With over 250 Film & TV credits to my name and 1000’s of comedy shows. I will teach your the things I did to become a successful and what you can doo to work in the field that is your passion.
Here’s what I learned and will teach to you: Steps to Your Own Victory Dance: 1) Embrace your discomfort, it’s your best friend 2) Go where your passion is, it’s always a step in the right direction 3) Become the best you can be. 3) Do all of the foot work. No one else will do it for you. 5) Make that extra call or email 4) Being uncomfortable will lead to success (and maybe even more sex and relationships). 5) How to create leads that lead to the life you want, and what to do with them I believe when you get into action with these ideas I look forward to sharing with you, people will be interested in helping you achiever your dreams too. When you walk thru any door, you will have no fear about what is on the other side. By taking action with my victim to victor roadmap, these simple methods will help you heal your harm and embrace your own power and success! Take Aways

I will share the intimate details of growing up and being bullied all through my school years, and being plagued with thoughts of suicide as a youth. But also share how I released the pain and will teach YOU how to LET GO and receive the serenity in your life you deserve. I have used my experience, strength and hope as an openly gay actor and comedian to support the community by performing at countless benefits for issues ranging from #Black Lives Matter, Latinx equality, Holocaust, HIV-AIDS, LGBT rights, marriage equality, Women's Rights, Homeless, and the dignity of all regarding gender expression for the last 28 years. I am currently the national co chairman of the first ever SAG AFTRA LGBT Committee, and into addition having producing the annual comedy benefit for Lifeworks Mentoring Program for 6 years.
