Tony Vicich - Standup Comedian - Central Arizona College - Maricopa Campus - Room 101
Starting his standup comedy career in Los Angeles in 1985, Tony Vicich had been a national touring standup comic for over forty years. Prior to standup comedy, Tony was a scholarship student at the world-famous Lee Strasberg Institute.
His television credits include EVENING AT THE IMPROV, SHOWTIME, MTV, COMEDY CENTRAL, FOX, and TNN. In the mid-nineties he created and produced the television show TNN’S COMEDY ROUND UP. He has written for some of the top comics in the country, including Jay Leno, Bill Hicks, Ritch Shydner, and Craig Shoemaker.
Tony Vicich is now the Executive Producer and co creator of "Tony Vicich's Comedy on Typhoon." The show is a weekly half hour stand up show featuring up and coming stand up comics. It can be seen exclusively on typhoonondemand.com.
An expert in the field of one person shows, he directed Ritch Shyder’s THE ADVENTURES OF CANYON MAN and was the creative consultant on Comedian of the Year Craig Shoemaker’s sold out one man show WHOSE YOUR DADDY.
Tony’s workshops have taken people all the way from a Free Intro Class to national television. Former students and alumni have appeared on Last Comic Standing, The Jimmy Kimmel Show, The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, episodic television, and commercials. Our alumni excel in the field of comedy, writing, and dramatic acting. Most notably we are proud of Josh McDermitt. For several years he has portrayed Eugene on AMC’s The Walking Dead. Michael Longfellow who began with Tony at The Tempe Center, For The Arts, is now a regular cast member on Saturday Night Live.
