(ENGLEWOOD, NJ) -- Bergen Performing Arts Center presents comedian Howie Mandel on Saturday, March 12, 2016 at 8:00PM. Mandel has remained a constant force in show business for over 30 years with a versatile career that has encompassed virtually all aspects of the entertainment spectrum, including television, film and stage. Tickets range from $39 to $99.
From Mandel's work on the Emmy-Award winning St. Elsewhere to the international animated children’s series Bobby’s World, Howie has become a mainstay of the American comedy scene. In 2009, Howie added another title to his resume, author, when he released his frank, funny, no-holds-barred memoir Here’s the Deal: Don’t Touch Me. The memoir that revealed his ongoing struggle with OCD and ADHD–and how it has shaped his life and career–made the New York Times Bestseller list on its first week and remained on the list for several consecutive weeks.
In addition to his comedy, Mandel is also executive producer of many shows with his production company, ALEVY PRODUCTIONS, including Deal With It, a hidden camera ambush show where unsuspecting members of the public are secretly dared to pull a prank on their unwitting companions with absolutely no time to prepare. He also serves as one of the judges on NBC’s summer hit talent competition series America’s Got Talent alongside Heidi Klum, Mel B and Howard Stern. Previously, Howie received an Emmy nomination for “Outstanding Host For A Reality or Reality-Competition Program” for Deal or No Deal and a Daytime Emmy nomination for “Outstanding Game Show Host” for the syndicated version of the show.
Howie’s Emmy Award-nominated animated children series Bobby’s World ran eight seasons on FOX and now appears in syndication six days a week in 65 countries. As the series’ creator and executive producer, Howie was closely involved in its writing, as well as providing the voice of Bobby, Bobby’s dad and other characters. Howie attributes the show’s success to drawing the story lines from real life.
Howie has done countless comedy specials both on cable and network television. He has also hosted his own syndicated talk show, The Howie Mandel Show, and continues to be a mainstay on the talk-show circuit. Howie also continues to perform as many as 200 concerts a year throughout the US and Canada.
bergenPAC is located at 30 North Van Brunt Street in Englewood, NJ.
