Brian Regan
Apr 10 @ 7:30 pm
Peace Center

Critics, fans, and fellow comedians all agree – Brian Regan is one of the most respected comedians in the country. Regarded as “the funniest stand-up alive” by Vanity Fair and called “Your favorite comedian’s favorite comedian” by Entertainment Weekly, Regan has built a 30-plus year career on the strength of his material. His multi-dimensional talent of stand-up comedy, acting and television producing has culminated in a non-stop theater tour visiting close to 100 cities each year, and now Greenville!

Regan premiered his seventh hour-long comedy release in 2017, a Netflix special titled “Brian Regan: Nunchucks and Flamethrowers,” alongside Dave Chappelle, Chris Rock, and Jerry Seinfeld. The following year, he starred in his own Netflix series, “Standup and Away! with Brian Regan,” combining sketch and stand-up comedy. Most recently, you can catch him in his highly anticipated Netflix special, “Brian Regan: On the Rocks,” released February 23, 2021. He appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman 28 times and can also be found as a regular guest on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.

On stage, Brian took his act international in 2019 with a London debut at The Leicester Square Theatre, and shortly after made his Kennedy Center debut with two sold-out shows. Regan appeared at Carnegie Hall in 2017, following years of performances in New York City’s finest theaters, including Lincoln Center’s Avery Fisher Hall, The Beacon Theater, and Radio City Music Hall.

Jay Leno at the Peace Center
Apr 11 @ 7:00 pm
Peace Center

Acclaimed late-night TV host, admired stand-up comedian, best-selling children’s book author, in-demand corporate speaker, lovable voice-over artist, pioneering car builder and mechanic, and philanthropist… it’s no wonder Jay Leno is widely characterized as “the hardest working man in show business.”

Leno’s late-night TV ratings domination included more than two decades of The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, winning every consecutive quarter he hosted. The Tonight Show was honored with an Emmy® Award for Outstanding Comedy, Variety or Music Series and took home the trophy for “Favorite Late-Night Show” in the annual TV Guide Awards determined by voting viewers. Leno was recently installed in the Television Academy’s Broadcast Hall of Fame.

Having passed the torch of Tonight Show succession to Jimmy Fallon, Leno has increased his customary busy schedule of comedy performances in top venues around the United States and abroad. He also continues his Emmy-winning web venture relating to his passion for automobiles, Jay Leno’s Garage.
