River Butcher is a Los Angeles-based standup comic, actor, and writer. His first half-hour special "A Different Kind of Dude'' debuted on Comedy Central's Youtube channel and was called "a masterclass in culture war commentary" by Esquire.com. The special also garnered the title of "Some of the Best Jokes of 2022 So Far." River recently wrote and produced on the FX pilot "Belated," previously wrote for "A League of Their Own," and created/starred in/wrote the critically acclaimed and GLAAD awardnominated "Take My Wife."


Why'd We Book It?

We had River during our very first year at Bottlerocket! Three years later, now he is our wonderful yearly evening of self deprecation, sharp observations, and good ol' fashion JOKES. Once again, we welcome having their hilarious and truly unique perspective back on our stage!
