2008 Steven Wright

If you love deadpan, monotone delivery of ironic comic material, you will love Steven Wright. He is a writer, actor, and standup comedian whose complicated jokes and witty one-liners are wildly popular all over the US. If you get tickets to see him perform live, you are sure to be quoting him for a long time after.

Steven Wright was born in 1955 and is from Burlington, Massachusetts. His first comedy album, I Have a Pony, was released in 1985. It became so popular that Steven was quoted as saying he couldn't even perform the material anymore because it had become too well- known. He went on to get a regular role on the show Mad About You in 1992.

The Appointments of Dennis Jennings is a short film made by Wright which won him an Academy Award. Wright's other foray into film was his appearance as the droning DJ in the movie Reservoir Dogs. He is a very talented actor; however, all of his television and film works are overshadowed by his hysterical standup comedy.

You have to buy tickets to see Steven Wright on stage soon. His jokes are so popular that they appear on countless websites on the internet. So don't let yourself fall behind the times. Get out of the house and let this master of irony entertain you with his static style and intelligent comedy.
