As the cocky yet loveable Tom Haverford on the Emmy-nominated NBC series Parks and Recreation, Aziz Ansari plays a small-time government employee bent on becoming a Diddy-like mogul. Considering he's cameo'd in a Jay-Z and Kanye West music video, counts Quentin Tarantino as a fan and has Barrack Obama 'keeping him humble and hungry', it seems Ansari's real life is doing just fine. One of comedy's 'most prolific writers and performers', Ansari follows up his Dangerously Delicious viralspecial with the all-new Buried Alive – an evening of bewilderment and disillusion set to open Just For Laughs at Sydney Opera House.Initially making his breakthrough with the MTV sketch series Human Giant, Ansari has appeared in films alongside Russell Brand and Jonah Hill in Get Him To The Greek, voiced 'Squint' in Ice Age 3: Continental Drift and was cast in Judd Apatow's Funny People, leading to a spin-off of his RAAAAAAANDY character. Currently developing three films for Apatow, Ansari recently picked up People Magazine's 'Funniest Dude In Prime Time' and graced the cover of Rolling Stone as their 'Funniest Man Under 30'.Amongst his ventures in film and television, Ansari remains addicted to the 'fast and free' nature of standup, making Buried Alive his third major tour in recent years. As Tom Haverford would say, 'treat yo' self' to Aziz's Buried Alive before he heads back for another season in Pawnee!
