Affectionately
known to his fans as “New Jersey’s Bad Boy of Comedy,” Mike Marino brings his
act to The Orleans Showroom on June 21.
A
Jersey native, Marino entered the world of theater at an early age and later
became a graduate of the prestigious American Academy of Dramatic Arts.
Throughout
his career, Marino has appeared in over 200 national television commercials,
and has received a Best Actor “Clio Award Nomination.” He has held roles in
many primetime soaps and television shows including, “As the World Turns,” “One
Life to Live,” “Becker,” “Nikki, Frasier” and “Party of Five.” His film credits
include, “Crooks,” “Pizza with Bullets,” “Hangin’ in Hedo” and Steven King’s
“Lucky Quarter.”
After
great success in film, theatre, commercials and soap opera opportunities,
Marino began touring and performing at comedy clubs at theaters throughout the
country. His stand-up material ranges from cutting edge observations of
everyday life to his Italian family roots; which recently spun into a T.V.
pilot called “Marino’s”. His unique comedic style has landed him guest
appearances on “The Tonight Show” as a regular sketch player, “The Martin Short
Show,” “Comics Unleashed,” “The Boomer Show,” “Wild Pitch,” “Hand Held Comedy
Radio,” “Rascals Comedy Hour” and more.
