Gerardo Freideles

Gerardo Freideles is an Argentine stand-up comedian and former dentist who combines a career as an entrepreneur with comedy, describing himself as an entrepreneur by day and a comedian by night. In 2010 he took a stand-up course with comedian Diego Wainstein and began performing, building a stand-up career that has now spanned around fifteen years while also working as a stand-up teacher. He won the Paseo La Plaza stand-up competition in 2011 and later ran his own show, Prohibido No Reirse, at Paseo La Plaza for six consecutive years. He has toured his solo material to Santiago de Chile, Montevideo and Miami, and performed in Israel, where he sold out shows at the Cameri Theater in Tel Aviv. His routines draw on his double life as a businessman and comedian, covering topics such as social media, streaming platforms, dating apps, turning fifty, marriage, divorce, air travel and family holidays, along with material rooted in contemporary Jewish humor. He continues to perform and post stand-up clips through his own YouTube channel.
