Star Dan Levy Headlines Foxwoods Tonight

Comix at Foxwoods presents Connecticut native and hilarious stand-up sensation Dan Levy for a three-night four-performance stand-up event, which begins tonight, April 30, 2015 at 8:00 p.m. and will end with Levy's "Nasty Show" on Saturday, May 2, 2015 at 10:30 p.m.

Levy received his first taste of stand-up in way back in 1993 as a member of the "Half Pint Players," a teen-age improvisation group in his native home of Stamford, CT. After dipping his toes into the waters of the stage and bright lights, Levy was hooked.

As an Emerson College student, Levy was never able to drop his enamor for stand-up. He began performing at open mics and other strange venues where people were more focused on beer than what the wannabe comics were saying. During his sophomore year, Levy was chosen to compete at the "HBO US Comedy Arts Festival" in Aspen, CO, where he won the title of "Funniest College Comedian."

Since then, Levy has performed at the "Montreal Just For Laughs Comedy Festival" numerous times and has made TV appearances on Comedy Central's "Premium Blend," "Comedy Central Presents," "The Late Late Show," and "Chelsea Lately," where he was a regular guest on the round table. Levy has also toured internationally with Aziz Ansari and Comedy Central Records released his album "Congrats on Your Success."

When he's not cracking jokes, Levy dabbles in film production and directing. Levy produced, wrote, and starred in, "My Long Distance Relationship," a 10-part web series for Crackle. In 2013, Levy collaborated with Jensen Karp to create, "Baby Talk," a live comedy show where 3 to 4 comedians ask for parenting advice from children between the ages of 5 and 10 years old. The show is held at the Nerd Melt Showroom in Los Angeles.

Levy also enjoys getting in front of the camera just as well as working from behind it. He has hosted four different MTV Shows including, "MTV Spring Break," and "Red Bull Flugtag." He was recently in New York City filming the, "I Have To Go In A Minute Show," a daily comedy show, which is produced College Humor and directed by Todd Strauss-Schulson. Levy also had a cameo in, "A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas" and starred in the Comedy Central pilot, "Let it Ride." He's also co-starred in the feature film, "My Sexiest Year," with Frankie Muniz and Harvey Keitel.
