Comedian,
voice actor and television star Billy Gardell makes his Treasure Island Theatre
debut April 10 at 9 p.m. Guests must be
18 or older to attend.
As
Officer Mike Biggs, husband to Melissa McCarthy’s Molly Flynn, Gardell
entertains millions of Americans every week on CBS’ hit comedy “Mike &
Molly,” which recently aired its milestone 100th episode. He will also host the syndicated “Monopoly
Millionaires’ Club” premiering March 28.
A
17-year-old Gardell first stepped onstage at the Bonkerz comedy club after his
coworkers bet him $50 that he wouldn’t do an open mic night. That first taste of stand up got him hooked,
and he performed regionally and then nationally for more than twenty
years. Gardell took the long road to
Hollywood, stopping at every small town lounge, military base and comedy club
along the way and honing his grounded, down-to-earth brand point of view. His powerhouse stand up show draws relatable
humor from his rough childhood, wild adolescence and new family life.
Prior
to “Mike & Molly,” Gardell had a recurring role on “Yes Dear” as Billy Colavita
and on “My Name Is Earl” as Officer Hoyne.
He co-starred on the critically acclaimed “Lucky” with John Corbett and
Craig Robinson, and appeared on “Judging Amy,” “Bones,” “The Practice,”
“Desperate Housewives,” “Monk” and “The King of Queens,” among others. He has also leant his voice to “Phineas and
Ferb,” “Family Guy” and “Gary the Rat.”
The
Pittsburgh native’s film credits include “Jersey Boys,” “You, Me & Dupree”
and a memorable scene with Billy Bob Thornton in the Cohen Brothers’ “Bad Santa.”
His
comedy specials, “Billy Gardell: Halftime,” premiered on Comedy Central and
“Billy Gardell Presents Road Dogs” premiered on Showtime. Additionally, he
makes regular appearances on “NFL Today” on CBS Sports.
