Hire Comedian Sebastian Maniscalco
Let’s face it: in our increasingly tepid, polite and politically correct culture we need more people like Sebastian Maniscalco. Forever able to seize the moment, never failing to speak his mind, always telling it like it is, this is one man who isn’t afraid to put it all out there.
Yes, the Chicago-area born, Italian-immigrant-raised comedian behind wildly successful network specials including last year’s “Sebastian Maniscalco: Why Would You Do That?,” “What’s Wrong With People?,” and “Aren’t You Embarrassed?” is that little voice within all our heads. The one we are too timid to unleash. Maniscalco is bearing the burden of our bizarre and head-scratching modern-day world. You can thank him later.
Make no mistake: Maniscalco’s is a meticulous, hard-won comedic point of view.
After Vince Vaughn enlisted him for his popular “Wild West Comedy Show,” in 1998 Maniscalco began his ascent to what Pollstar dubbed “the vanguard of a live comedy revolution,” becoming a favorite on late-night television and a touring juggernaut, eventually being named Just For Laughs’ Stand Up Comedian of the Year in 2016.
Distinguished by the New York Times as having his “own kind of panache,” Maniscalco is a success story resulting from years of hard work and a keen self-awareness of innate talent. A natural born-storyteller, one constantly regaling his family with madcap tales at the dinner table, Maniscalco moved to Los Angeles in 1998 and began pounding the pavement on his comedic quest. The tireless worker first made his name at the city’s famed Comedy Store where he performed at every opportunity with such comedians as Bill Burr, JJ Watt & Tom Segura — even if that meant rushing over to the club on a break from his waiter job at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills.
It’s quite the understatement: Maniscalco now sits as one of the premier standup comedians. And a multi-faceted one at that. In addition to starring in his own wildly popular SiriusXM program, “The Pete and Sebastian Show,” Maniscalco will make several major motion picture appearances in the coming year. Notably, a voice-over role in the animated feature “Nut Job 2,” premiering this year; a role in the New Line Feature comedy “The House” starring Will Ferrell and Amy Poehler (directed by Andrew Cohen); and a turn in the independent drama “Cruise” directed by Rob Siegel and produced by Jeremy Renner.
