Comedian and actor Pete Lee will be performing Friday and Saturday evenings at The Comedy Vault in Batavia. Tickets are still available for the 9:30pm shows each evening.
Pete was the first standup comedian to get a standing ovation on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, after Fallon personally attended one of Pete’s live shows in NYC and immediately invited him on the show.
Pete’s joyful humor comes from his Midwestern roots. Raised in Janesville, WI by divorced parents and a 19-inch television, he was destined to pursue a career in entertainment. In 2005, Pete flew to New York to make his television debut on Comedy Central’s Premium Blend, and the taping went so well that he decided to move to NYC. Soon after moving to NYC, he was selected to perform at the Just for Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal, where he was voted a standout performer. In 2008 Pete made his network television debut performing on NBC’s Last Comic Standing finishing as a semi-finalist. That same year, he made his television acting debut on the CBS Soap Opera As The World Turns. At the end of 2008, he shot his own Comedy Central Half Hour Special, which earned him a cult following at comedy clubs, and the opportunity to perform over the next ten years at 500 colleges across the country.
Currently, Pete is a cast member of TruTV’s Greatest Ever and he hosts his own segment on Nickelodeon’s Nick Toons, in co-ordination with the NFL, called NFL Rush. He’s also a regular on TruTV’s Comedy Knockout and Comedy Central’s Roast Battle. And he starred in a documentary titled I Need You to Kill that is now available on iTunes and Amazon.
This show is 21+. Two drink/item minimum per person. Check in at least 15 minutes before show.
Tickets are available here.
The Comedy Vault is located at 18 E. Wilson in Batavia.
