About Jordan Klepper: New Goods
Now at Union Hall, *Jordan Klepper: New Goods* brings the comedian back to a live room with new material shaped by years of political reporting and stage training. Klepper came up through The Second City and Upright Citizens Brigade, then spent 2014–2017 as a correspondent on *The Daily Show*, later creating *The Opposition* and leading the 2019 docuseries *Klepper* before returning to the franchise. The set tracks how media, crowds, and everyday language collide. In New York’s small-venue tradition, the closeness can make the satire feel less like commentary and more like testimony.
