Monroe Martin Plays Comix at Foxwoods, Beginning Tonight

Comix at Foxwoods will play host to the star of Comedy Central's, "Adam Devine's House Party" and former semi-finalist of NBC's "Last Comic Standing" Monroe Martin for a two-night, three performance stand-up event, which gets underway tonight, March 6 at 8:00 p.m.

Rising comedy star Monroe Martin mines laughs from an unusual source - growing up in foster care and being moved from one dysfunctional home to another. With a very honest, open approach to storytelling and an engaging personality, Martin effortlessly turns his childhood of hard knock experiences into comedy gold.

Martin attended the Community College of Philadelphia, but dropped out to pursue comedy wholeheartedly, because he couldn't imagine doing anything else. Seven years later, Martin's creative and charismatic comedic voice has created a buzz within the New York comedy circuit and earned him respect amongst his comic peers. He was given his own Breakout Artist Night by the famed Caroline's Comedy Club in New York City, where he got to book and headline his own show in 2013.

Since his breakout onto the stand-up scene, Martin continues to perform at the most renowned venues in the country. He has appeared on NBC's, "Last Comic Standing," "The Artie Lange Show" on DirecTV and will be seen on the second season of "Adam Devine's House Party" on Comedy Central, as well as the third season of "Gotham Live" on AXS TV. Martin has also written for the MTV2 series "Charlamagne and Friends."
