Comedian Demetri Martin Strikes Two-Special Deal With Netflix; First Hour, ‘Demetri Deconstructed,’ Premieres In April
Comedian Demetri Martin will debut his latest special, 'Demetri Deconstructed,' on Netflix in April under a two-special deal with the streamer.
One of the most original comedic voices of his generation, known for bringing musical instruments as well as visual aids into his act, Martin began honing his craft on New York City’s vibrant stand-up circuit after graduating from Yale in 1995. Breaking out with his critically acclaimed one-man show, If I, which won the Perrier Award at the International Fringe Festival in Edinburgh, Scotland and was turned into a special for the BBC, Martin worked early in his career as a staff writer for Late Night with Conan O’Brien, earning a WGA Award and an Emmy nomination for his work before going on to serve as a writer-performer on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Additionally, he directed, exec produced and hosted Our Fascinating Planet, a short-form comedy series for Funny or Die.
