Stand-up comic and Broadway, film and television star David Alan Grier will perform at the Treasure Island Theater with Kira Soltanovich on Friday, July 14 at 9 p.m.
Grier rose to fame on the sketch comedy series “In Living Color” alongside comedians Jamie Foxx, Jim Carrey and Tommy Davidson. Since then he has hosted the stand-up series “Premium Blend” and starred in his own Comedy Central special “The Book of David: The Cult Figure’s Manifesto.” Grier is one of Comedy Central’s “100 Greatest Stand-Ups of All Time.”
Before his big break on “In Living Color,” Grier got his start on Broadway in “The First,” for which he earned a Tony Award nomination for Best Featured Actor and won a Theatre World Award. He was also a member of the original Broadway cast of “Dreamgirls.” Most recently, Grier earned a Tony Award nomination and Grammy Award nomination for his work in “The Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess.”
Currently, Grier plays Jerrod Carmichael’s father in the comedy series “The Carmichael Show,” now in its third season on NBC.
Grier shares the stage with Soltanovich, who played pranks alongside female comedians, including Chelsea Handler, for three seasons on “Girls Behaving Badly.” She was also a correspondent on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.” Most recently, she released her one-hour special “You Did This to Me,” which she filmed and produced while more than seven months pregnant.
