HEADSHOTS

Reem Edan is a comic who’s always stuck in the middle: she’s both Iraqi and American, Muslim-Sunni and Shiite, and literally the middle child. Sprinkle in an overweight childhood and you've got a recipe for a stand-up comedian.

Reem has opened for Arsenio Hall and Hannah Berner; written for the NBC Late Night Writing Program; and can be seen in sketches with Elizabeth Banks (Pitch Perfect 3), Markian B. (Smile Squad), Betches (IG) and her parents on her popular TikTok. She frequently performs internationally (in English and Arabic) across the Middle East, Europe, Latin America and Japan.

Soon to make her TV debut on Shahid VIP (the largest streaming service in the Middle East), Reem’s unique brand of Muslim-ennial humor shines a light on growing up culturally confused, never fitting in, and continually disappointing her parents… who hope her time performing at colleges will somehow lead to a law degree.

 I worked with Reem to put on a Muslim comedy night at Stanford University and had a wonderful time working with her. She was professional and great to talk to, and her set was absolutely hilarious. It really was the perfect  set at the intersection of being Muslim, Arab, and American, and the audience loved it. Since then, I’ve made sure to keep up with her work, since I think Reem is a wonderful addition to the comedic space and has a bright future as a Muslim-American comic.

Reem [and Teresa Lee] were both absolutely wonderful! They had great interaction with the students and they both ended up doing a short Q&A at the end which was something super unique and fun. I would highly recommend them to other colleges if I had the chance.

This is generationally appropriate comedy and Reem is a natural. She connected with every person in the room and they couldn't get enough of her. We got more than we requested in this private show and are still laughing recalling her jokes. Not a diva and very relatable; we might write her into our wills!

Reem is an outstanding comedian and a fan favorite. She has returned to Portland State University 3 times and came with a completely new set each year. Her ability to read the audience and hilarious material made for an amazing show, and I'm sure we will see her at PSU again soon.

The show last night was great. We had a decent group of students attend and they really responded well to both Reem [and Matthew Broussard]. Equally, both Reem and Matthew were very easy to work with and were down to earth, talked to the students, offered us some insight since it was our first time having comedians. I hope that we showed them a good time and that they enjoyed visiting campus. We would definitely have them back again. Thank you for everything and hopefully we can work together again soon.
