“Bear Strategies” by Mike Birbiglia – Animated!

Mike Birbiglia’s third self-produced animated short features the track, “Arctic Fox It’s a Setup,” from his Comedy Central Records release, “Two Drink Mike.” The piece was animated by Matt Czap and produced by Joe Birbiglia. Comedian Mike Birbiglia has appeared on Late Night With David Letterman, The Late Show With Conan O’Brien, The View, and Late Night With Jimmy Fallon. In 2008, Mike Birbiglia teamed up with producer Nathan Lane to present “Sleepwalk With Me,” a painfully funny one-person show about first love, denial, and how the sleepwalking disorder that nearly killed him might have saved his life. The New York Times called the show “Simply perfect,” and it was twice extended, earning Mike nominations for both a Drama Desk Award and an Outer Circle Critics Award for “Best Solo Performance.” The Boston Globe has described Mike’s stories this way: “As honest as any Richard Pryor confession and as engaging and inclusive as an old Bill Cosby record.” Mike is a popular contributor to shows as diverse as “The Bob & Tom Show” and “This American Life.” In 2009 Mike will headline his own Comedy Central tour, called the “I’m in The Future Also” Tour. He’ll perform standup in more than 30 cities and universities across the country. Tickets and more information about all of these comedy shows is available at www.birbigs.com/tourdates. Mike Birbiglia is also hard at work on his next comedy album and next one-hour special, and is currently working on a screenplay adaptation of “Sleepwalk With Me,” as well as a collection of short stories to be published by Simon & Schuster. Mike Birbiglia is a very busy guy.
