New England Stand-Up Sensation and "Boondock Saints" Co-Star Bob Marley January 10

Comix at Foxwoods presents stand-up great Bob Marley for a one-night-only performance comedy event at the Fox Theater at Foxwoods

Not to be confused with the Rastafarian, reggae music great, Bob Marley, this Bob Marley is from Portland, ME.

In Sept. 2010, Marley set the “Guinness Book of World Records” for Longest Stand-up Comedy Performance by an individual with a 40-hour long set, while raising money for the Barbara Bush Children’s Hospital in his hometown of Portland, ME.

Marley, who’s been doing stand-up for nearly a decade, is regularly featured on SiriusXM Radio, and has toured across the country, as well as internationally from Europe to Canada and Iraq to Kuwait. Additionally, he’s done the rounds on the late night circuit, including appearances on “The Late Show with David Letterman,” “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno,” “Late Night with Conan O’Brien” and “The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson.”
