Mike Marino
Mike Marino’s comedic wit is unlike any other. Known to thousands of fans as ‘New Jersey’s Bad Boy,’ this comic has a tongue like a razor and a heart of gold. Marino’s special ability to cater his material for all audiences—from strictly clean to down and dirty—makes him an extremely versatile comic. Marino has performed in every major comedy club from New York to Los Angeles including The MGM Grand, The Comic Strip, The Improv and the world famous Laugh Factory in Hollywood. He has worked with some of the biggest names in the business and in 2008 was inducted into the New Jersey Comedy Hall of Fame.
Mike entered the world of theater at an early age and took it by storm, graduating from the prestigious American Academy of Dramatic Arts. Mike has appeared in over 200 national television commercials and acted in numerous Prime Time soaps and television shows including As the World Turns, One Life to Live, Becker and Steven King’s Lucky Quarter. Mike’s outstanding work was recognized when he received a Best Actor Clio Award Nomination.
After successful runs in film, theater, soaps and commercials, Mike began touring the country performing in comedy clubs and sold out theaters. His stand-up material encapsulates everything from observations of everyday life to his strong Italian family roots. When Marino is not on the road performing, he enjoys travelling and spending time with his family.
