Killing them softly. It’s exactly what calm, chill, collected (and hysterical) Noah Gardenswartz does on stage. The comedian was born and raised in Colorado but broke out in the comedy scene here in Atlanta with his wry mix of observational humor and personal anecdotes that landed him as a New Face of Comedy at the Just for Laughs Festival, followed by a Comedy Central half-hour special, performances on “Conan” and “Last Comic Standing,” and the release of his a debut album, Blunt. Former stomping ground the Laughing Skull Lounge welcomes back the hometown hero (and former CL scribe!) this week where Gardenswartz will headline five shows.
