Inspired by the likes of Jim Carrey and Steve Martin, Adam Ace was always one of those kids bouncing off the wall in elementary school with way too much energy.  Eventually he surprised himself by graduating from college and then went on to do the only thing that he is good at, entertaining audiences with his crazy comedy.  A full time professional since college Adam Ace has appeared at comedy clubs, theaters, colleges and universities throughout the country.  The LA Weekly recently said “Adam Ace is a punkish goofball that engages the audience in loony games.” 
Always on the edge and original, Adam Ace is not just a stand up comedian. Just imagine if you put aspects of Jim Carrey, Robin Williams, Andy Kaufman, Steve Martin and Adam Sandler in a blender and mixed them all up,
you'd have the ADAM ACE show!! 
 

                                     He is the cure for the common comedian,
                                               N
ot just a comic, he is Adam Ace!!

 



How long have you been doing comedy??
Since 1962. I feel as though I have be reincarnated and I used to exist in the body of an overweight jewish comedian who performed in the catskills by the name of Lenny Schultz.

What do you wanna be when you grow up?
Older.

What do you do when you are not doing comedy?
Lots of things. I enjoy a quick round of cricket. I do volunteer work with orphans. I am very skilled in the art of Tai-Chi. Sometimes if I am bored I like to sit and watch TV. But, because of my extreme case of ADD, I can't just sit and watch TV, so while doing so I often like to see if I can open a Starburst candy with my toes. It is important to note I only use the toes on one foot. Really, anyone can do it with both feet, but becase I use one foot that is what sets me apart. I just go a tattoo so that I could have it removed by laser just because I always wanted to see what the laser looked like. Unfortunately when you have it done you have to wear special goggles that block your eyes so you can't see the laser. It was quite a disappointment. And the rest of my time is normally spent in the kitchen. Not cooking or anything like that, that is just where I keep all of my props because there is really nothing else in the kitchen at my place.

Do you have more than one red suit?
Actually the suit I wear on stage is actually white, it just appears red to the audience because of the amazing flow of love and passion for the ladies that runs through my body which then reflects outward, thus creating the appearance that the suit is red. This is one of the reasons the girls call me "The Big Red Love Machine."

Do you have a girlfriend?
I do not and here is why. If I had just one girlfriend, that would disappoint so many woman throughout the country and the world. So because I care about all of these ladies I have decided to keep myself single so that all of the lovely ladies of the world feel as though they have a chance with the Aceman!!!!

Who influenced your performing?
Most of the psychiatrists that I have seen over the course of my life. Most of them said: "Please never get a real job!"

Did you go to college?
Yes I did. Did I do much studying when I was there? Well, that's another story.
Did I graduate? Yes, barely.

Where do you live?
Normally out of a suitcase.

What kind of car do you drive?
Well, the care I have decided to roll in is the ever popular minivan!!
That's right, made popular by soccer mom's in the 80's and 90's it is now the choice of sexy red-suited comedians of today. The ladies love it because there are no seats in the back of mine, which means.............if we want to buy groceries there is plenty of room for them back there.

What do your parents think of what you do??
They are pretty cool about it now that all of the litigation and settlements are behind us. They are currently living in the witness protection program somewhere in the continental United States.

What were you like as a kid??
Pretty much the same as I am now but a little more mature and I was female known as Wanda. Other than that I haven't changed all that much.

What would you do if you were not doing comedy?
I get offers all the time to do supermodel work and just can't seem to fit it into my schedule. I have also been approached to be a spokesmen for several over-the-counter drugs. But what I have always dreamed of doing is being one of those guys who stands on the highway when a lane is closed and holds the sign that says STOPon one side, and SLOW on the other, and he has to rotate it every time they change directions of traffic. That would be awesome.

Are you really crazy?
Um.....Yes.

Where do you see yourself in 10 to 20 years?
Standing in front of a mirror, looking at myself and saying "My goodness even after all these years you are still a sexy, sexy man."

If you had children would you have them do comedy as well?
Absolutely. As soon as they could walk, I would spike their hair, throw a red suit on them and send them out onto the stage so they could make Daddy some money. Although, since I have decided to stay single so all the woman of the world feel as though they have a chance, I am lookign in to the possibility of becoming the first man in history to give birth. I will impregnate myself and give birth to a baby. It will be amazing, plus it will be funny to watch a pregnant man on stage in a red suit, as I will not be taking any time off of performing during my pregnancy.

How often do you have girls running after you after a show?
Quite often actually. Just last week there were a bunch of girls talking to me after my show who wanted to buy my CD and I took their money but didn't give them the CD's and I took off and they were all running after me. That happens a lot.

What is your favorite age group to perform for?
Anywhere between 6 and 96.

Describe your perfect date.
Ah, that's a good question. I would have to say I would pick the lovely lady up at 7:00 in my red minivan and we would venture off to a random neighborhood and find a couple of houses that need their lawns cut and we would mow their lawns and then leave just out of the generosity of our hearts because they say if you do things together it will bring you closer. Then we would go to a drive-thru at Taco Bell and order something, and then proceed to go through the drive-thru seven more times and order the exact same thing and pretend like we have never been there before until the person working there thinks they have lost their mind and are going mental. This is great fun.

We will then take all the food from Taco Bell that we have ordered and go to the movies. Once inside the movie theater we will set up a taco stand inside the theater for all the people who are watching the same movie as us and sell the tacos as an alternative to the overpriced Sourpatche Kids at the concession stand. With that money we would then go to a tattoo shop and get matching tattoos of each other's names on our shoulders. But not of each others. We will get tattoos of our own names on our own bodies, because really, when you think about, you are never going to break up with yourself are you? And if I ever break up with myself I will have more problems than I ever anticipated. Although, the one problem I might run into is people might see the tattoo and think I am dating a guy named Adam Ace and that the girl is dating a girl named Amy. That would be terrible. On second thought, we would not get tattoos, we would just sit in the theater after the movie was over and think about what kind of tattoos we would get if we were going to get them.

The evening would be finished off with a nice contest of arm wrestling. This is really fun. It is the best of both worlds for the guy. When you arm wrestle a girl and lose, she obviously thinks that you were being nice and were just letting her win. What she doesn't realize is that you underestimated her power and she actually beat you fair and square, but she doesn't really need to know that. Either way you are a winner.

After the arm wrestling, we will get in the minivan and I will drive her back home at which point she will probably throw herself at me because I let her beat me at arm wrestling, and did not force her to go through the embarrassment of the tattoo escapade. And I will have to let her know that that is not the type of guy I am, and that if we were to make out or french kiss as the kids say, that she would be so overwhelmed by my passion and love that she would never be able to feel the same about kissing another man as long as she lives, and I just would not want to put her through that. Then I would drop her off, shake her hand, and prepare for the next date.

What made you want to be a comedian?
I wanted to find a job that would allow me to wear a leotard and get away with it without people thinking I was weird.

How do you come up with the stuff that you do on stage?
It just hits me like a bolt of lightning. And if it doesn't hit me like that, and I need to come up with something creative, I strip down to my boxer shorts and rub cottage cheese all over my body and then hold a cell phone in each hand. That allows me to summon the creative forces that lie deep within me, and I can then come up with incredible things.
