Broad City’s Ilana Glazer and Abbi Jacobson To Host Awards Show
The One Club has selected the creative force behind Comedy Central’s “Broad City” to host its annual awards show honoring creativity. Ilana Glazer and Abbi Jacobson will be the emcees for the 42nd Annual One Show Awards coming up on May 8th. The One Club is the world’s foremost non-profit organization recognizing creative excellence in advertising, marketing communications and design. Each year, the group celebrates the best in the industry.
Kevin Swanepoel, chief executive officer of The One Club, was thrilled with the organization’s choice for this year’s hosts. He said, “In a year where humor saw a resurgence following a few years where ‘sadvertising’ predominated, Ilana Glazer and Abbi Jacobson are the perfect hosts to reflect the current industry sentiment. Our industry is very much about staying ahead of the curve, and Broad City is definitely on the cutting edge of entertainment. Benefiting from their comedic talents and some of the best creative work we’ve seen in years, The One Show 2015 will be a spectacular production.”
The 42nd Annual One Show Awards will be held at Alice Tully Hall, Lincoln Center on Friday, May 8th. The ceremony will be the grand finale for the One Club’s “Creative Week” events and festival which goes on from May 4th through the 8th. For more information, go to OneClub.org.
