SEBASTIAN MANISCALCO<\/h3>\n

April 1 @ 8:00 pm<\/p>\n

SANDS BETHLEHEM EVENT CENTER, 77 Sands Blvd<\/p>\n

Bethlehem, PA 18015<\/p>\n

\"Sebastian<\/p>\n

Doors to Vision Bar Open: 6:00PM | Showtime: 8:00PM<\/p>\n

Price Level 1: $55.00<\/p>\n

Price Level 2: $45.00<\/p>\n

Price Level 3: $35.00<\/p>\n

Saying what we\u2019re all thinking has always been Sebastian Maniscalco\u2018s specialty. Except when he says it, it\u2019s a whole lot funnier.<\/p>\n

And in his most recent standup special \u201cAren\u2019t You Embarrassed?\u201d, the sophisticated comedian with the chiseled cheekbones gives us a hilarious reality check of the world we all find ourselves living in. The special spawned the Twitter hash tag #Aren\u2019tYouEmbarrassed, with thousands of followers donating their take via social media, as well as appearances on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Late Night with Seth Meyers and Conan.<\/p>\n

Continues to bring his witheringly sarcastic and exasperated take on modern behavior and etiquette, Sebastian takes on everything from selfies that he calls \u201clonelies\u201d (\u201cDo you know how alone you have to be to have 838 photos of yourself in your bathroom?\u201d) to online restaurant reviews (\u201cWho\u2019s got the time to write an 18 page essay on asparagus?\u201d) to airport check-ins (\u201cI\u2019m taking out a boot, a sock, toothpaste, does anyone know what two pounds is?\u201d).<\/p>\n

Maniscalco will return in 2016 with a new hour of skepticism while playing host at the Beacon Theatre May 7, 2016. His first memoir titled, \u201cWhere You Wanna Eat?\u201d also expected in 2016, will explore Maniscalco\u2019s most memorable dining experiences through his observations of human nature. The first glimpse at the table-side humor audiences can expect from Maniscalco in his memoir can be seen in January when he joins Jerry Seinfeld for \u201cComedians In Cars Getting Coffee.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sebastian also makes several major motion picture appearances in 2016 including a voice-over role in the animated feature \u201cNut Job 2,\u201d a New Line Feature comedy \u201cThe House\u201d starring Will Ferrell and Amy Poehler (directed by Andrew Cohen), and in the independent drama \u201cCruise\u201d directed by Rob Siegel and produced by Jeremy Renner.<\/p>\n
