Nature Talks to Itself LIVE! (in LA)

The first podcast by nature, for anybody… LIVE!

Nature Talks to Itself is an improvised comedy show hosted by a talking rock named Tony Geode (Justin Michael) and a tiny, crunchy leaf named Atiny Crunchyleaf (Jace Armstrong).

Join us for a night of comedy, music and madness as we chat with the biggest names in LA nature – from a superbloom and a stinkbug to a rattlesnake and a raccoon – played by special guest comedians and improvisers from your favorite TV shows, films and podcasts!

ABOUT THE HOSTS
Jace Armstrong and Justin Michael met at a middle school BBQ, reconnected at a college improv festival, and have performed comedy together ever since.

They’re veteran performers of the UCB stage and currently host the improv podcast Nature Talks to Itself – “the first podcast by nature, for anybody.”

Jace is a writer/actor/director/producer from Los Angeles. He’s written for CHAD & JT (Netflix) as well as MUTANT POWERS (Facebook) and has produced on several shows including NATHAN FOR YOU (Comedy Central), COMEDY BANG! BANG! (IFC), and THE ERIC ANDRE SHOW (Adult Swim). You can see him on THE DAILY SHOW (Comedy Central), CAKE (FXX), THE UCB SHOW (Starz), and TWEEN FEST (Amazon). Jace has directed projects for Funny or Die and Buzzfeed. He’s performed all over LA and NYC and can be seen in a Samsung commercial in which he eats a big nacho, a GEICO commercial in which he eats a normal burrito, and hopefully someday a Nissan commercial in which he eats a tiny chile relleno.

Justin is a writer, performer and director from Los Angeles. He recently wrote for the animated adaptation of AMONG US, served as story editor for Netflix’s BONE, wrote on all 4 seasons of Max’s critically-acclaimed INFINITY TRAIN, and created Tree Secrets, a surreal series of shorts for FX’s anthology series CAKE.
