Comedian, actor and best-selling author Sebastian Maniscalco will appear on “CBS Sunday Morning” this Sunday, July 22. CBS News correspondent Mark Strassmann will talk with Maniscalco, author of the best-selling book "Stay Hungry," about what is at the heart of his unique blend of observational and physical comedy: his very colorful family. The episode airs at 9 am ET/8 am CT.
Maniscalco recently wrapped the spring leg of his already blockbuster Stay Hungry Tour with five sold-out shows at New York’s iconic Radio City Music Hall. People Magazine’s “The comedian's comedian” broke the historic venue’s record with his appearances ranking him the highest grossing comedy weekend in their 85+ year history. The performance was filmed for a Netflix special to debut next year.
Never one to rest on his laurels Maniscalco is hungry for more. The fall leg of the Stay Hungry Tour begins Sept. 8 at Los Angeles’ famed Greek Theater and will feature over 30 shows across the US and Canada including Philadelphia, Pa.; San Francisco, Calif.; Minneapolis, Minn.; Vancouver, B.C.; Las Vegas, Nev.; Austin, Texas; Atlanta, Ga.; Orlando, Fla. and more. Tickets are on sale now at sebastianlive.com.
The fall leg of the tour comes on the heels of an incredible year for Maniscalco. In February he released his first book “Stay Hungry,” for Simon & Schuster making the national best-sellers list. He also performed over 50 shows in cities including Montreal, Canada, where he was dubbed "Stand Up Comedian of the Year" at Just For Laughs Festival, Boston, Chicago, Washington D.C. and Toronto, Canada, where he sold out (19,000 tickets) Toronto Air Canada Center all culminating with five sold-out shows at New York City’s Radio City Music Hall.
2018 has also seen Maniscalco expand his major motion picture portfolio with a role in “TAG,” out now, starring alongside Jon Hamm, Ed Helms and Jeremy Renner. Later this year he will star in “Green Book” with Oscar-winner Mahershala Ali, Linda Cardellini and Viggo Mortensen and in 2019, Maniscalco will join a star-studded cast that includes Robert DeNiro, Al Pacino, Joe Pesci and more in Martin Scorcese’s upcoming film “The Irishman.”
