Actor and comedian Dov Davidoff will appear for five shows this weekend at The Comedy Vault in Batavia.
Davidoff currently appears on HBO’s Crashing and NBC’s Shades of Blue with Jennifer Lopez and Ray Liotta. He’s been seen on The Tonight Show and Late Night with Jimmy Kimmel as well as a lead role alongside Mark Wahlberg in the Movie Invincible. He’s done a comedy special for Comedy Central and Showtime, and made guest or recurring appearances on various other TV shows and movies.
Davidoff recently had a memoir published by St. Martin’s Press entitled “Road Dog: Life and Reflections of a Standup Comic from the Road.” In “Road Dog,” Dov turns the blistering insight frequently displayed in his comedy on himself. As a result, Davidoff proves that years spent observing America from the stages of comedy clubs reveal all kinds of truths about the stuff we tell ourselves to get by, and the strange baggage we carry with us. In his case, that baggage is truly strange. Above all, Road Dog chronicles his fractured childhood days spent in a New Jersey junkyard with a gruff Jewish father and commune-loving hippie Protestant mother. With an eye for self-reflection, and a penchant for hilarious irony, Dov pulls back the curtain on a life hard-made on the road.
Tickets for The Comedy Vault can be purchased here.
The Comedy Vault is located at 18 East Wilson in Batavia.
