Tony Roberts Biography
Originally from Detroit, comedian, actor, writer and (sometimes) director Tony T. Roberts has been blessed with the coveted honor of being the, “Comedians-comedian.” The guy other performers love to watch work. His hilarious and refreshing energetic comedy style has granted him respect and created a huge demand for him on the comedy circuit, here in the states and abroad. Legendary comedian and sitcom director, David Steinberg, acclaimed Tony as “a breakout talent” after witnessing Tony’s stand-up act and casting him as the lead in a series of funny Burger King commercials he directed.
Tony has entertained audiences in some of the nations hottest comedy arenas including: Caroline’s, The Boston Comedy Club in New York City; The Peppermint Lounge in New Jersey; All Jokes Aside in both Chicago and Detroit; and The Comedy Act Theater in Los Angeles, just to name a few. But Tony’s television debut was on HBO’s “DEF COMEDY JAM,” followed by “IT’S SHOWTIME AT THE APOLLO” and “BET’S COMICVIEW.” Early on, Tony received BET’s, ROBIN HARRIS AWARD, for Most Original Comic.
Soon after, HBO noticed Tony’s rising star and sent him to be featured at the 11th Annual U.S. Comedy Festival in Aspen Colorado. Upon returning, Tony was asked to return to the stage again for HBO, this time due to popular demand from his initial performance on HBO’s “DEF COMEDY JAM.” He would later appear in the season premiere of "Russell Simmons presents," "Comedy at the El Rey" for Comedy Central. Shortly after, Showtime Network and Salient Media placed their stamp of approval on Tony, and agreed to tape and air his one hour comedy special, "WIRED!," which aired in January 2010 and was the most sold comedy special of the year for Salient Media. The DVD is nationally featured in Walmart’s across the nation.
No stranger to TV and film, as an actor Tony has toured with a major theatre play, has been cast in a sketch comedy pilot for CBS entitled "JUST ADD WATER" and has appeared in half a dozen movies.
