Critics and peers agree: Brian Regan has distinguished himself as one of the premier comedians in the country. The perfect balance of sophisticated writing and physicality, Brian fills theaters nationwide with fervent fans that span generations.
Releasing two critically acclaimed hour Comedy Central specials and DVDs in as many years - 2008's "The Epitome of Hyperbole," and 2007's "Brian Regan Standing Up" - Brian has set a standard of excellence that others continually try to follow. "The Epitome of Hyperbole" will make its CMT debut on March 9.
Brian's non-stop theater tour has visited more than 80 cities each year since 2005 and continues through 2010. It is the quality of his material, relatable to a wide audience and revered by his peers, which continues to grow Brian's fan base. In March Brian will break the record for most consecutive shows by a comedian at Abravanal Hall in Salt Lake City with five sold out performances. The previous record was four shows set by Jerry Seinfeld in 2005.
With his first appearance on "The Late Show with David Letterman" in 1995, Brian solidified his place on the show and has now made more than 20 appearances. He also includes regular visits with Conan O'Brien on his schedule.
A dorm room favorite, Brian's 1997 CD, "Brian Regan Live," has sold over 150,000 copies and consistently charts in iTunes Top Ten Comedy Albums. Brian's 2000 "Comedy Central Presents" special continues to be a top viewer choice and Brian's independently released 2004 DVD, "I Walked on the Moon," is available at www.BrianRegan.com.
