Actor and Comedian Jim Gaffigan will let loose the laughs at Hard Rock Live at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino on April 25 at 7 p.m. Tickets go on sale Friday, February 12 at noon.
Jim Gaffigan has proven himself a major talent beloved to a wide range of audiences after achieving milestones in stand-up, acting and writing. Many may recognize Gaffigan from his numerous award-winning commercial campaigns which include Sierra Mist, ESPN, Saturn and Rolling Rock. His commercial presence even earned him Business Week’s 1999 “Salesman of the Year” honor.
As a stand-up comedian, Gaffigan’s clever, quiet style has earned him an unprecedented number of appearances on both CBS’ Late Show with David Letterman and NBC’s Late Night with Conan O’Brien.
After Gaffigan’s first appearance on Letterman, the host personally chose him to develop a sitcom for World Wide Pants. Eighteen months later, Welcome to New York debuted on CBS to critical acclaim. He then co-starred with Ellen DeGeneres on her CBS sitcom, The Ellen Show. Gaffigan also lent his talents to co-write and voice 20 episodes of Pale Force, a series of comedic superhero animated shorts that aired on Conan and on the internet via webisodes.
For two years, he had recurring roles both on FOX’s That ‘70s Show and NBC’s Ed. Gaffigan has also had roles on Sex and the City, Third Watch and each of the Law & Order shows, among others. Gaffigan also co-starred in My Boys, TBS’ first original scripted comedy series.
On film, Gaffigan has endeared himself to audiences by taking on vivid supporting characters such as in the cult hit Super Troopers and The Great New Wonderful, a meditation on the aftermath of 9/11 that took audiences and critics by surprise as he embodied an office worker broken by tragedy who ultimately explodes in rage.
Gaffigan’s other recent film credits include Trust the Man, 13 Going on 30, Three Kings, Igby Goes Down, 17 Again, Thirty Years to Life and Away We Go.
His one-hour Comedy Central Special CD and DVD, entitled “Beyond the Pale” went gold within the first six months. His most recent release is King Baby now available on CD and DVD.
