BOB SAGET HEADLINES THE WILBUR THEATRE ON MAY 2ND
Boston, MA- Bob Saget is set to perform The Wilbur Theatre on May 2nd, 2014 at 7:00pm
Yes, Bob Saget has starred in many successful television shows, including two of the most family-friendly shows network TV has ever produced (“Full House” and “Americas Funniest Home Videos”) but he’s also an out of his mind, standup comedian for over thirty years. From his his HBO special “That Ain’t Right” to his scene-stealing cameos in “Entourage,” and “The Aristocrats,” it’s always effective as Saget embraces his dark side.
From directing MGM’s cult favorite feature film “Dirty Work,” to directing and producing the highly acclaimed ABC television movie, “For Hope,” to starring in the critically acclaimed, Paul Weitz off-Broadway play, “Privilege, to starring on Broadway in the Tony Award winning “The Drowsy Chaperone,” Bob Saget shows no signs of stopping. Ever.
In 2007 came the hugely successful DVD release of “Farce of the Penguins,” an R-rated comedy/documentary/love story, that he voiced-over, wrote, directed, and produced, with producer David Permut. And then came the hit NBC quiz show “1 VS 100,” where Bob ad-libbed his way through the one-hour prime time format. In 2008, “The Comedy Central Roast of Bob Saget” premiered to the second highest ratings of all TV that night, second to the Olympics. And last year Bob’s sitcom, “Surviving Suburbia” aired on ABC.
For many years now, Bob has been a proud board member of the Scleroderma Research Foundation. He co-produces and hosts “Cool Comedy Hot Cuisine” fundraising events in Los Angeles, New York, and San Francisco.
Bob was seen reprising the role of “Himself” on HBO’s hit series “Entourage” and he starred in his own documentary comedy series for A&E titled, “Strange Days with Bob Saget,” an exploration of unusual subcultures in America. He recently guest starred on “Law and Order Los Angeles,” “Entourage: A Look Back,” and “Louie,” and is continually playing to sold out audiences in theaters and universities across North America.
