Event Details
Steven Wright is a comedian/actor/director/producer and writer with a career spanning over 30 years. He is known for his distinctly lethargic voice and slow, deadpan delivery of ironic, philosophical, and sometimes nonsensical jokes and one-liners. His credits include several comedy albums and TV specials as well as writing, directing and producing popular TV shows and films.
Wright was ranked twenty-third by Comedy Central in a list of the 100 greatest stand-up comics. He was awarded the Academy Award for Best Live Action Short Film for his 1988 short film The Appointments of Dennis Jennings. His1985 comedy album I Have a Pony received critical acclaim and was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Comedy Album. The success of this album firmly developed a new brand of obscure, laid-back performance comedy and built a cult-like following of hip, savvy fans.
