Entertainment icon Jerry Seinfeld’s comedy career took off after his first appearance on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson in 1981.  Eight years later, he teamed up with fellow comedian Larry David to create what was to become the most successful comedy series in the history of television: Seinfeld.  The show ran on NBC for nine seasons, winning numerous Emmy, Golden Globe and People’s Choice awards, and was named the greatest television show of all time in 2009 by TV Guide, and in 2012 was identified as the best sitcom ever in a 60 Minutes/Vanity Fair poll.

Seinfeld has also starred in, written and produced movies (Comedian, Bee Movie), directed and produced a Broadway hit (Colin Quinn Long Story Short), and even wrote a best-selling book (Seinlanguage) and a children’s book (Halloween).

Seinfeld directed the off-Broadway production of Colin Quinn: The New York Story and the Netflix stand-up special.

Seinfeld’s latest project is critically-acclaimed web series Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, seen exclusively on Crackle and comediansincarsgettingcoffee.com, which has garnered over 100 million views, and which the New York Times describes as “impressively complex and artful” and Variety calls “a game changer.”

Seinfeld resides in New York City with his wife and three children.  He remains active as a standup comedy performer, continuously touring both nationally and internationally.

Acquired by The Madison Square Garden Company in 2006, the Beacon Theatre is one of New York’s most revered theaters and is a beloved New York landmark. In 2008, the 2,800-seat venue located on the Upper West Side underwent a seven-month restoration period focused on bringing the venue back to its original 1929 grandeur. For the past two decades the Beacon Theatre has operated as a successful concert and special events venue, hosting some of the biggest names and events in entertainment. The Beacon Theatre is part of a portfolio of world-class venues under The Madison Square Garden Company including Madison Square Garden, The Theater at Madison Square Garden and Radio City Music Hall; the Forum in Inglewood, California; The Chicago Theatre; and the Wang Theatre in Boston, MA.
