Ramy Youssef Comedy Special Taping
February 13th and 14th The Hideout - Chicago, IL
Ramy Youssef is an award-winning Egyptian-American creator, actor, producer, director, and comedian whose vibrant voice and unique perspective in storytelling have led to him becoming one of the leading artists of his generation.
Youssef is the co-creator, executive producer and star of #1 HAPPY FAMILY USA, the A24 and Cairo Cowboy-produced adult animated series, which premiered on Prime Video in 2025. The series follows the maniacally upbeat Husseins – the most patriotic, peaceful, and most definitely-not-suspicious Muslim family in post-9/11 "Amreeka." In 2026, Youssef was nominated for a Critics Choice Award for his role in the HBO Original Film MOUNTAINHEAD from Succession’s Jesse Armstrong. Youssef made his feature debut in Yorgos Lanthimos’ Oscar-winning POOR THINGS opposite Emma Stone, Mark Ruffalo, and Willem Dafoe. He has been a guest star in Apple TV+’s award winning series THE STUDIO from Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg.
Behind the camera, he earned Emmy and DGA nominations for directing THE BEAR episode “Honeydew.” He is best known for creating, directing and starring in Hulu’s Peabody-winning RAMY, which earned him a Golden Globe award and multiple Emmy nominations. Youssef also co-created Netflix’s MO, the award-winning series starring Mo Amer, which debuted its second season in 2025.
Yossef’s second HBO special, RAMY YOUSSEF: MORE FEELINGS, produced by A24 and his production company Cairo Cowboy, earned nominations for 2025 Golden Globe, Critics’ Choice, WGA and Peabody Awards.
