SUMMARY:ANTHONY RODIA:  LAUGH TILL IT HURTS TOUR
DESCRIPTION:A first-generation Italian American born and raised in Westchester\, New York\, Anthony Rodia came out of the womb making people laugh. In his 20’s he tried a few open mics\, but ultimately took a different career path as a finance manager of a luxury car dealership. In 2019\, Rodia returned to comedy and left his day job to become a full-time stand-up comic. He hit the ground running and performed 100 shows in just nine months\, and within three years Anthony has gained a massive fan base online and around the country. In a very short time\, Anthony gained over 900\,000 social media followers and his YouTube videos have amassed over 22 million views. Rodia’s comedy pulls from his real life and razor-sharp observations on marriage\, parenthood\, road rage\, and everything else worthy of a social media rant. With the onset of quarantine\, Anthony made the most of a captive audience\, delivering a staggering 86 weekly videos. “ROAD RAGE WEDNESDAY” became a fan favorite\, but his Uncle Vinny and Zia Lucia characters transformed into a phenomenon. They are the crazy uncle and aunt you love but can’t be out in public with\, who speak their minds (whether you asked for it or not). \nBuy Now
