Paul Mecurio’s Permission to Speak

Saturday, November 11, 2023 @ 8:00pm



Monmouth University - Pollak Theatre
400 Cedar Avenue, West Long Branch, NJ 07764

Paul is an Emmy & Peabody Award winning comedian for his work on “The Daily Show w/Jon Stewart,” “The Colbert Report” and “The Late Show w/Stephen Colbert.” Paul works on and makes recurring appearances on “The Late Show” (including his most recent “Late Show” appearance that brought down the house and has everyone talking). Paul created and stars in his hit, unique Broadway show, “Paul Mecurio’s Permission to Speak” which now has a national and internation fall 2023 tour. The show was directed and produced by Frank Oz, legendary director of such films as “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels,” “Bowfinger,” “Stepford Wives,” and “Little Shop of Horrors.” 

“Permission to Speak” was met with rave reviews and been nominated for the prestigious “Most Unique Show” Broadway Alliance Award. In this exciting one man comedy show with a twist, starring the audience and Mecurio, Mecurio improvises with audience members by randomly bringing them on stage and talking with them about who they are, their lives, interests, personal experiences and what they honestly think without feeling boxed in by the confines of contrived political correctness or fear of offending. A breath of fresh air, PERMISSION TO SPEAK is first and foremost, funny and entertaining, but also a truly freeing experience.
