Like most rising star comics today, looking to further build their audience while reaping due rewards for their work, Joe Pera is self-releasing his latest special, Joe Pera: Slow & Steady, tak…
was independently financed and produced and comes to the internet following the conclusion of Pera’s cult favorite Adult Swim series,. Little has been revealed about the subject matter he’ll address, but it will of course be marked by Pera’s singular slow, gentle style as, more or less, the Mister Rogers of comedy.
In Pera’s words, “The ‘Slow & Steady’ special is the culmination of a year and a half on the road, over a decade of doing stand-up, and of working closely on many projects with director Marty Schousboe, composer Ryan Dann, and production designer Caity Birmingham. Producers Michelle Caputo and Shannon Hartman were pretty cool too.”
With regard to releasing without a studio or streaming partner, he deadpanned, “It’s okay, it cost my savings, but we made a stand-up special just the why we wanted to. I think it’s pretty good and hopefully people will laugh and say ‘that was a well-spent 56 minutes.'” In addition to writing and performing the special, Pera exec produced alongside Michelle Caputo and Shannon Hartman of Art & Industry, Olivia Gerke of 3 Arts Entertainment, and director Schousboe, with Grant Farsi as associate producer and Danny Sanchez as line producer.
A stand-up comedian, writer, and filmmaker from Buffalo, NY, Pera was both the creator and star of the soothing, which saw him playing a fictionalized version of himself and speaking directly to the viewer to spotlight the beauty of what some might call mundane topics — like beans, for example, or the building of a chair.
