David Alan Grier returns to Cobb’s for another weekend of hilarious standup comedy.
After a succession of character roles in films and guest spots on TV, Grier was cast in Keenan Ivory Wayans' tribute to the "Blaxploitation" movie, "I'm Gonna Git You Sucka" (1988). This led to his becoming one of the original ensemble players on Wayans' TV series "In Living Color". Grier's memorable characterizations for the landmark series include Antoine Merriwether, the non-bald half of the "Men On..." sketches and a less than kind impression of Muhammad Ali.
Grier has been seen in numerous films including “Jumanji”, the recent film adaptation of the beloved television show “Bewitched”, and his hilarious character Don “No Soul” Simmons from the 80’s cult classic “Amazon Women From The Moon”. He also had a notable role in writer-director-star Mario Van Peebles' "Baadassss!", recounting Melvin Van Peebles' efforts to film his 1971 classic "Sweet Sweetback's Baadassss Song." David has guest-starred and performed on numerous television shows including Comedy Central’s “Premium Blend” & “Crank Yankers”, “Letterman”, and “MadTV”.
David Alan Grier “LIVE” is one show not to be missed!
