Fun-loving comedian Mark Normand is headed down under this June with the Fanny Guy Tour!

Known for his “relentlessly punchy writing and expert delivery” (The Laugh Button), which has made him one of the most sought-after comedians in the industry today, fans are in for a treat when Mark brings his Fanny Guy Tour to Auckland.

This year, Mark took out first place at the Great American Comedy Festival competition. Mark has released multiple hit comedy specials, including Don’t Be Yourself and Out to Lunch, and features on Netflix’s The Standups. He has appeared six times on TBS’s CONAN, as well as the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Showtime’s Live at SXSW, INSIDE AMY SCHUMER, TruTv, Best Week Ever, MTV, Last Comic Standing and @Midnight.

In addition to his stand-up career, Normand has acted in several television shows, including Broad City and Horace and Pete. He also co-hosts the popular podcasts Tuesdays with Stories! with fellow comedian Joe List, We Might Be Drunk with Sam Morril, and appears monthly on The Joe Rogan Experience.

In 2013 Mark won Caroline’s March Madness competition, beating out 63 other comedians. He was also voted Village Voice’s ‘Best Comedian of 2013’. In 2012, he appeared on John Oliver’s New York Stand-up Show on Comedy Central, and in 2011 was picked as one of Comedy Central’s ‘Comics to Watch.’

Mark was born and raised in New Orleans, LA surprisingly to two normal parents. As a kid he spent most of his time shooting short films and wetting the bed. He started doing comedy right after college and quickly moved to New York. Mark now does comedy clubs and colleges across the country and has been involved in many festivals including Portland, Seattle, DC, Boston, Vancouver, Melbourne and in 2013 was featured as a New Face at the Montreal Comedy Festival.

Mark was named one of Comedy Central’s ‘Comics To Watch’ for the 2011 New York Comedy Festival, was named Esquire’s ‘Best New Comedians 2012’, Splitsider’s ‘Top 10 Up and Coming Comedians on Each Coast’, and Time Out New York’s ‘21 New York Comedy Scene Linchpins’.
