Brian Regan is one of the hottest comedians performing today. In sold-out theaters across the country, audiences keep coming back time and again to see what's new in Brian’s comedy world. As a kid, Regan was a huge fan of Johnny Carson, The Smothers Brothers and Jonathan Winters and stand-up comedian Steve Martin. It was Martin's silly, but smart, comedic genius that inspired Regan. In the early 80's, Regan started performing at a small comedy club in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. In 1986, Regan moved to New York City, where he based himself until 1994. Brian won the K-Rock - Miller Lite Funniest Person in New York contest in 1988. By the early 90's, Regan had developed into one of the best stand-up comedians in the country and began nailing down national TV appearances: MTV Half Hour Comedy Hour, Pat Sajak, Arsenio Hall, and The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Fans continue to see Brian on TV in regular guest appearances on both “The Late Show with David Letterman” and “Late Night with Conan O’Brien.” Brian won the 1996 American Comedy Award for Best Comedian and in 1997 released his CD, "Brian Regan Live." He starred in his own comedy specials for Showtime and Comedy Central and was featured in Coca Cola's Concession Stand Comedy in movie theaters throughout the country. All of the energy of an entire Brian Regan live performance was captured on the DVD released in December of 2004, "I Walked On The Moon" which sold over 25,000 copies in less than a year.
