Sonoma County, CA. ~ Fresh off a wildly successful, two- year-plus run on his Stay Hungry Tour, Billboard’s 2018 Co- median of the Year Sebastian Maniscalco returned this month with his new You Bother Me tour. Now comes word the man the New York Times calls “America’s hot- test comic” has ex- tended the initial run adding over 25 dates in 2020 across the U.S. and Canada. To purchase tickets visit sebastianlive.com. Touted as ‘the co-


median’s comedian” by People, Manis- calco finds himself “at the vanguard of a live comedy rev- olution” according to Pollstar. And the man “NBC Nightly News” called “com- edy’s new superstar” is showing no signs of slowing down. “There’s nothing like going to a live show and see- ing it in real life,” Maniscalco says in a recent interview with Forbes, who named him as one of the Top 10 highest-gross- ing stand-up comedians in the world in 2019. “Is there a comedy bubble that’s going to pop soon? Yet to be seen, but as I’ve been in this business, it has gotten progressively bet- ter each year and I don’t see it slowing down.”


Not only has the star power of Maniscalco rocketed upward


in the past few years thanks to shows described by Bill-


joke at a time, one audience at a time." Although he may not have started his career in film, Manis- calco’s loyal fans will continue to see more acting roles from him with a perfor- mance opposite Rob- ert DeNiro, Al Pacino and Joe Pesci in Mar- tin Scorsese’s The Irishman. The film premiered on Netflix Nov. 27. Maniscalco attended the world premiere of the film with the star-studded cast this past Septem- ber at the New York Film Festival. Later this month he


will begin work on his next role as famed producer Giorgio Moroder in Spinning Gold a film about ’70s Casablanca Records chief Neil Bogart starring Michelle Monaghan, Samuel


board as ‘devastatingly full force comedy,” but also due to his high energy Netflix Orig- inal special – “Stay Hungry” - streaming now. The special, which was taped over a span of five sold-out shows at the legendary Radio City Music Hall, had Maniscalco playing for a total of 28,312 long-time fans and early believers in his unique comedic voice. Vulture recently said of the entertainer’s journey to suc- cess, “Maniscalco, without a breakout TV or film role, built a tremendous fan base the old-fashioned way: one
