Rob Schneider in Manila
FILIPINO-American comedian and 2011 Emmy-nominated actor Rob Schneider will be coming to the country to perform his first stand-up comedy show for one night only.
“Rob Schneider Live in Manila” will be held at the Manila Grand Ballroom, Solaire Resort and Casino on Monday, Oct. 28 at 8 p.m.
Schneider, famous for his “Saturday Night Live” sketches and his movies “Deuce Bigalow,” “The Hot Chick” and “The Animal,” returned to stand-up comedy after a 20-year break. His world tour in 2011 received rave reviews.
Schneider began writing jokes as a teenager. He eventually opened for comedian Jerry Seinfeld and made his major network television debut in 1987 on “The David Letterman Show.” Producer Lorne Michaels hired him to be a regular on “Saturday Night Live” in 1990. Schneider was nominated for three Primetime Emmys and a Peabody Award during his four-year stint.
