(ENGLEWOOD, NJ) -- Bergen Performing Arts Center (BergenPAC) presents comedian Steven Wright on Thursday, October 5, 2017 at 8:00pm. Wright was ranked as the twenty-third greatest comedian by Comedy Central in a list of the 100 greatest stand-up comics. Tickets range from $29 to $59.
Steven Wright is a stand-up comedian, actor, writer and an Oscar-winning film producer. He is known for his lethargic voice and deadpan delivery of ironic, philosophical, and sometimes nonsense jokes, non sequiturs, anti-humor and one-liners with contrived situations.
He was awarded the Academy Award for Best Live Action Short Film for his 1988 short film The Appointments of Dennis Jennings.
Wright's 1985 comedy album, I Have a Pony, received critical acclaim and was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Comedy Album. The success of this album landed him an HBO special. In 2006 Wright produced his first stand-up special in 16 years, Steven Wright: When the Leaves Blow Away, which aired on Comedy Central.
