HACPAC presents Corey Rodrigues – PAC the House

originally published: 03/31/2026

(HACKENSACK, NJ) -- The PAC the House series returns to Hackensack Performing Arts Center (HACPAC) on Saturday, April 25, 2026 at 8:00 PM for a spectacular night of stand-up comedy. Headlining the evening is Corey Rodrigues, a powerhouse comedian who has taken the country by storm. Kim Jonny hosts the evening, which also features a performance by Linette Palladino.

A winner of The Funniest Comic in New England and the 2017 Big Sky Comedy Festival, Corey Rodrigues has built a reputation as one of the most compelling voices in comedy today. You may have caught him on Gotham Live, Laughs on Fox, or True TV’s Laff Mobb’s Laff Tracks, or perhaps his acclaimed Dry Bar Comedy Special. In 2019, he made his late-night debut on Conan O’Brien, and in 2020 dropped a 30-minute special for EPIX’s Unprotected Sets.

His style is refreshingly honest and wildly entertaining, weaving real-life stories with a sharp, hilarious point of view that keeps audiences hooked from start to finish.

Tickets are $35 and available for purchase online. Hackensack Performing Arts Center (HACPAC) is located at 102 State Street in Hackensack, New Jersey.

Linette Palladino is a seasoned performer who has graced stages across the United States and around the globe, from Iceland to Hong Kong and even for U.S. troops in Iraq. She has opened for some of America's best comics including Dave Attell, and Carole Montgomery. She was one of five nationwide finalists in the HBO Latino Stand-up Competition. In 2022, Linette won Jersey's Funniest Female at The Eagle Theatre.  Linette brings a world-class energy and wit that is not to be missed.
