Have-Nots Comedy Presents Joe Matarese

Joe MATARESE GREW UP IN CHERRY HILL, NJ, and at the age of nineteen moved his stand-up act from his parent’s basement to the local Philadelphia clubs. Three years after breaking into the Philly COMEDY SCENE, he moved to New York City to pursue his life long dream. He soon became a regular at all the A-list COMEDY CLUBS AND WAS PAVING HIS PATH IN SHOW BUSINESS. Joe's completely autobiographical act pokes fun at his subtly dysfunctional Italian family, his own neuroses, life with a newborn baby boy, and his marriage to a psychologist (his perfect match). After 20 years of failed relationships, his main objective is fixing Joe – he has to if he wants this relationship to work. Joe’s talent for turning real life struggles into comedic gems quickly landed him appearances on the most sought after TV and radio shows including The Late Show with David Letterman, COMEDY CENTRAL PRESENTS (his very own 1/2 hour special), The Howard Stern Show and Breuer Unleashed on Sirius Satellite Radio, Howard On Demand, The Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn, COMEDY CENTRAL'S PREMIUM BLEND, and NBC's Last Comic Standing. You may also recognize Joe from Bravo’s reality series Better Half where he teaches his wife to perform stand-up and she brought home the $20,000 prize. Joe has also hit the stage four times at the prestigious Montreal COMEDY FESTIVAL, leading to two development deals with major television networks. ------------------------- FAQS * The shows are 18 and over with a two item minimum inside showroom * Doors Open at 7pm and seating is on first come first serve basis.  * Parking is avaiable in venue garage for $1 per hour  * We have a full dinner menu and full bar available durring show * Shows run around 90 minutes  * We have a casual dress code policy
