Comedian Mike Birbiglia brings his wit to My Girlfriend's Boyfriend. New Wave Dynamics will release the award-winning comedian's new comedy special on CD, DVD, and digitally November 26, 2013.

My Girlfriend's Boyfriend is a one-of-a-kind hybrid of standup comedy and storytelling written by and starring Mike Birbiglia. Mike shares a lifetime of romantic blunders and miscues that most adults would spend a lifetime trying to forget. On this painfully honest but hilarious journey, Birbiglia struggles to find reason in an area where it may be impossible to find - love. Birbiglia performed 81 sold-out performances of the show at the Barrow Street Theater in New York City. The show then toured 70 cities across America, The United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia, and played its final live performance at Carnegie Hall on June 2, 2013. Before retiring the show, Birbiglia filmed a performance of it at the Intiman Theater in Seattle, WA. This is that performance.

Mike Birbiglia is a comedian, writer, and actor best known for his award-winning off-Broadway hits Sleepwalk with Me (2008), and My Girlfriend's Boyfriend (2011). The New York Times called My Girlfriend's Boyfriend"ridiculously enjoyable." It was named a critic's pick by The New York Times, Time Out New York, and New York Magazine. In recent years Birbiglia has emerged as standup comedy's preeminent storyteller. He has starred in three Comedy Central Specials, released three hit CDs for Comedy Central Records, Two Drink Mike Sleepwalk With Me, and My Secret Public Journal Live, which was named one of the "Best Comedy Albums of the Decade" by The Onion AV Club. Birbiglia has also made regular appearances on Public Radio International's This American Life. In 2011, Birbiglia directed and starred in a feature film adaptation of Sleepwalk With Me.
