Alex Ebert has been tapped to score the upcoming Showtime original series I’m Dying Up Here. The show is created by Dave Flebotte (Just Before I Go) and stars Melissa Leo, Ari Graynor, Clark Duke, Michael Angarano, Andrew Santino, Erik Griffin, RJ Cyler, Al Madrigal and Jake Lacy. The comedy based on the non-fiction book of the same title by William Knoedelseder is set in L.A.’s famed ‘70s stand-up comedy scene and follows a brassy comedy club owner who mentors up-and-coming comedians with tough love. Flebotte is also executive producing the project with Jim Carrey, Michael Aguilar (The Crazies, What Happens in Vegas) and Christina Wayne (Copper).
