1. A New Chapter in Stand-Up Comedy
After "Entourage" ended its run in 2011, Piven continued to work in film and television, but it
wasn't until 2018 that he made a pivot into stand-up comedy. In an interview with Rolling
Stone, Piven revealed that he had always been interested in comedy, even studying at the
Second City Improv in Chicago in the '80s. He took the plunge into stand-up after performing at
a benefit show and realizing how much he enjoyed the experience.
Piven's stand-up career began with a series of shows in Los Angeles before he took his act on
the road, performing at comedy clubs across the country. His style is self-deprecating and
observational, touching on topics like aging, relationships, and his own career. One of the
unique aspects of Piven's act is that he often incorporates characters from his past roles into his
set, giving audiences a taste of Ari Gold, John Cusack's character from "Serendipity," and even
his turn as a car salesman in "The Goods."
