Yohay Sponder: Genesis

Yohay Sponder brings his show Genesis to the Buckhead Theatre on Sunday, January 24, 2027. He's a stand-up comedian who describes himself as one of a kind in the comedy world, and the set is built around a specific way of working: he tests new material live, which means you'll hear fresh jokes that aren't on his social media. If you've followed him online, this is the version of the act you won't find there.

That Israeli edge is a part of the act, too. He's known for bringing it into his sets, and it's one of the things that sets him apart from the usual circuit. Between the new material and that particular perspective, Genesis is a look at where his comedy is heading right now, rather than a polished version of what he's already put out.

People who've seen him describe him as smart, classy, and a real pro, and that's a good way to frame what to expect. He's not the kind of comic who leans on shock value or low-hanging fruit; the 'classy' part points to a set that's as much about the delivery as the punchlines. If you're into stand-up that's tight and well-constructed, that's where he lands.

Presale is open now, so you can get your tickets before the general sale. The show is at the Buckhead Theatre in Atlanta, starting at 7 PM on Sunday, January 24.
