(NEWARK, NJ) -- New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) presents an evening of outrageous, contemporary stand-up with some of the funniest new performers on the scene: BET star Gary Owen (House of Payne, Think Like a Man), Deon Cole (of ABC's Black-ish), Talent (KISS-FM’s Morning Show) and Smokey Suarez (Paper Soldiers). The night of laughs takes place on Friday, November 17, 2017 at 8:00pm in Prudential Hall.
Actor and stand-up sensation Gary Owen's first big break came in 1997 on BET's popular -up showcase, Comic View. Since then, he's been featured on the big screen in Daddy Day Care, Little Man, and opposite Kevin Hart in Think Like a Man. Owen had a recurring role as Zack in Tyler Perry's House of Payne, has produced two smash hit stand-up specials (Breakin' Out the Park and Urban Legend), and has headlined in both Martin Lawrence Presents: 1st Amendment Stand-Up and Shaquille O'Neal's All-Star Comedy Jam Tour. Owen is prepping his own BET series, The Gary Owen Show.
Sharing this uproarious evening are three other fast-rising stars who began their careers on the stand-up stage: Deon Cole (known for his recurring role as Charlie on ABC’s hit series Black-ish), Talent, and Smokey Suarez.
NJPAC is located at One Center Street in Newark, New Jersey.
