New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) presents Gary Owen with Special Guest Bruce Bruce on Saturday, April 20, 2019 at 8pm.

Don't miss this outrageous, side-splitting evening with Gary Owen and special guestBruce Bruce, two of the most popular entertainers on the contemporary stand-up scene.

Classified by Ebony as "black America's favorite white comedian," Gary Owen has starred in several Showtime specials including his most recent, I Got My Associates. He is the star of BET's Gary Owen Show, which chronicles his dynamic, interracial life with his wife and children in small-town Ohio, and was a regular on TBS' Tyler Perry's House of Payne. His film work includes Meet the Blacks (with Mike Epps), Think Like a Man (with Kevin Hart), and Daddy Day Care (with Eddie Murphy).

Bruce Bruce was the host of BET's 10th Anniversary Comic View and later returned to the network as the two-time host of Coming to the Stage. He starred in his own Comedy Central Presents special, and later appeared on Showtime in his one-man stand-up event, Losin' It. His other television work includes stints on Syfy's Superstition and IFC's Maron. Bruce's big-screen projects include Hair Show (with Mo'Nique), The Wash (with Snoop Dogg), the Chris Rock-directed Top Five, and Who's Your Caddy?

Tickets to see Gary Owen and Bruce Bruce go on sale Friday, February 15th at 10 a.m. at NJPAC.org or 888.GO.NJPAC (888.466.5722) or by visiting the NJPAC Box Office.
