(RED BANK, NJ) -- Comedian Ralphie May comes to the Count Basie Theatre on Wednesday, April 22 at 8pm. Since his debut on season one of “Last Comic Standing” and being voted one of Variety’s “10 Comics to Watch,” audiences can’t get enough of the larger than life comedian. Tickets range from $35-$49.
Ralphie May continuously fills theaters and comedy clubs on his non-stop nationwide tour and has released an unprecedented 5 one-hour comedy specials in the past 10 years. All of Ralphie’s stand-up specials have achieved record-setting ratings on Comedy Central, and he is about to release two all new, original hours through an exclusive deal with Netflix.
Ralphie has a no nonsense point of view and the ability to connect with a diverse audience by pointing out society’s hypocrisies. Ralphie doesn’t shy away from touchy topics or ethnic jokes, nor does he bite his tongue when society suggests, because he sincerely believes that as long as what he’s saying is true, people need to hear it. Lovable enough to get away with anything, Ralphie continues to capture the hearts of thousands on his sold out tours and promises to make you gleefully uncomfortable.
On the small screen, Ralphie has worked as a writer and producer on ESPN's “Mohr Sports” starring Jay Mohr and performed stand-up on numerous late night talk shows including four appearances on CBS's “The Late Late Show w/ Craig Kilborn” as well as eleven appearances on “Jimmy Kimmel Live.” He has appeared on “The Man Show” and MTV’s “Bash” as well as guest-starred on NBC’s “Whoopie.” As if that’s not enough, he’s also one of a handful of comedians to have received a standing ovation on “The Tonight Show w/ Jay Leno.” In addition, he recently released a vintage comedy album recorded in Houston in 1998 and his new line of barbecue sauce called “Fat Baby Jesus.”
The Count Basie Theatre is located at 99 Monmouth Street in Red Bank, NJ.
