Critics and peers agree, Brian Regan has distinguished himself as one of the premier comedians in the country. The perfect balance of sophisticated writing and physicality, Brian fills theaters nationwide with fervent fans that span generations.
Brian’s standard of excellence was set from the beginning. Watching such masters as Johnny Carson, The Smothers Brothers and Steve Martin, Brian was enthralled with the world of comedy and tried stand-up right out of college at a Ft. Lauderdale club an hour from his hometown of Miami. Touring the country constantly through the late 80’s and 90’s Brian won the 1996 American Comedy Award for Best Comedian, starred in two Showtime specials and performed on all the leading late night shows, including his life-long dream, “The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson.”
A dorm room favorite, Brian’s 1997 CD, “Brian Regan Live,” has sold over 150,000 copies and consistently charts in iTunes Top Ten Comedy Albums. Brian’s 2000 “Comedy Central Presents” special continues to be a viewer favorite and all of the energy of an entire Brian Regan live performance is captured on the 2004 DVD, “I Walked on the Moon,” which is available through Brian’s website.
A perfect pairing of comedic excellence, Comedy Central has aligned with Brian in a rare multi-platform deal embracing him as a premier comedian of the network. Brian will star in two one-hour stand-up specials, release the specials on DVD, develop his own show for the network, and headline the 2007-2008 theater tour, “Brian Regan in Concert: A Comedy Central Live Event.”
Brian recently taped his second one-hour special which will premiere on Comedy Central later this year. Brian’s first one-hour special, “Brian Regan: Standing Up,” premiered on Comedy Central on June 10, 2007. The special was recorded in April 2007 at The Barclay Theater in Irvine, CA and a DVD of the performance was released in August 2007.
