April 22-23: Kevin Hart at the Improv

Kevin Hart

This former salesman must have a true knack for comedy, or a stroke of luck playing in his favor. Many might favor that it's a definite knack. Not so long ago Kevin Hart was selling shoes in Philadelphia when he decided to try his hand at comedy. After winning a few local amateur comedy contests, Hart kissed the shoe store goodbye and embarked on his journey to stardom. This young entertainer has performed at such venues across the nation, including Los Angeles well renowned The Comedy Store. Hart even offered his comedic skills to Montreal's prestigious Just for Laughs comedy festival. Kevin will be starring in the ABC sitcom The Big House. Based loosely on Hart's comedic material, the sitcom is already a favorite among fans and critics, and is predicted to be the launching pad that hurls Hart into primetime stardom. Kevin also starred in the movie Soul Plane with Tom Arnold, Methodman, Monique.
