DESCRIPTION:Ages 12 and up recommended. \n\n\nGary Owen has been entertaining audiences for more than two decades with his sharp observational humor and fearless storytelling.

He is also widely recognized for his scene-stealing role as “Bearcat” in the MGM film COLLEGE. \nOn television\, Owen starred in his own BET series THE GARY OWEN SHOW and co-hosted TruTV’s sketch series UPLOAD WITH SHAQUILLE O’NEAL. After meeting Tyler Perry on THE TOM JOYNER MORNING SHOW\, he was cast in the recurring role of Zach the barber on the TBS comedy series TYLER PERRY’S HOUSE OF PAYNE. \nOwen continues to write\, produce and perform his own groundbreaking comedy specials\, including BLACK FAMOUS\, #DOIN’ WHAT I DO\, I GOT MY ASSOCIATES\, I AGREE WITH MYSELF\, TRUE STORY\, URBAN LEGEND\, and BREAKIN’ OUT THE PARK. Most recently\, he recorded two specials back-to-back—BROKEN FAMILY and GARY OWEN…NO S\, released this past spring on YouTube. \nIn addition to his on-stage and on-screen work\, Owen hosts his own podcast\, #GETSOME WITH GARY OWEN\, and has appeared on numerous others\, including FLAGRANT PODCAST\, TIGERBELLY\, YOUR MOM’S HOUSE with Tom Segura & Christina P.\, CLUB SHAY SHAY and WE PLAYIN’ SPADES PODCAST with Nick Cannon\, among others. \nFollowing a wave of record-breaking\, sold-out performances at comedy clubs across the country\, he recently announced his first major North American theater tour\, NO HARD FEELINGS\, which kicks off in early 2026. \n\n\n
