In June of 2024, I performed my first solo show "I Thought I Was Specia" at the Hollywood Fringe Festival. The show is a combination of autobiographical stand-up and storytelling covering my own depression and anxiety as well as a few darker topics such as my family's experience with mental illness and even darker still, my own acting career.

Here's how I explained it in the Fringe catalog:

"It’s mostly jokes… mostly.

Growing up with a bipolar father and a schizophrenic older brother left Aaron Foster with a combination of survivor’s guilt, depression and anxiety that has invalidated his every accomplishment, destroyed his every relationship and invaded his every waking thought. A comedy!"

And here's a collection of comments taken from the reviews audience members left on the Fringe site after seeing the show. Not bad, right?

And here's the first trailer I made for the show, comprised of bits from a variety of shows at a variety of comedy clubs. I did have one of the shows professionally recorded so as soon as I have that, I'll update with some excerpts from the show itself.
