His shows, "My Girlfriend’s Boyfriend" and "Thank God for Jokes," were both filmed for Netflix, while his show "The New One" ran for 99 shows at the Cort Theatre and earned him the Drama Desk Award and the Outer Critics Circle award for Outstanding Solo Performance.
In addition to performing live, Birbiglia is an author and filmmaker who wrote, directed, and starred in the films "Sleepwalk with Me" and "Don’t Think Twice."

In 2017, Birbiglia was honored with the Kurt Vonnegut Award for humor, and more recently, he performed in the Broadway show 'Old Man and the Pool' at the Vivian Beaumont Theater at Lincoln Center, which further solidified his reputation in live theatrical performances.
