Modelface Comedy presents Mohanad Elshieky
July 17, 2025 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
$18
Every weekend Modelface Comedy brings you the best comedians from all over the country. This week we have Mohanad Elshieky from NYC!
Mohanad Elshieky is a New York-based, Libyan-born comedian who made his national TV debut on Conan, appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and has been featured on Comedy Central and Don’t Tell Comedy. He has toured across the country with the critically acclaimed storytelling show Pop-Up Magazine.
Mohanad is currently a writer and consultant for the hit podcast Lovett or Leave It and was one of the hosts of Lemonada Media’s podcast I’m Sorry. He has also been featured in Kumail Nanjiani’s Little America book.
In 2018, he appeared in an episode of Epix’s Unprotected Sets and was listed as one of Thrillist’s 50 Best Undiscovered Comics. Mohanad was also a digital producer on Full Frontal with Samantha Bee. Known for his deceptively laid-back demeanor and whip-smart perspective on politics and culture, he combines sharp humor with incisive commentary.
The Portland Mercury called him “an undisputed genius of comedy.” Mohanad has also been featured on popular podcasts such as Lovett or Leave It, Pod Save the People, and Harmontown.
