Merrick Arts Council’s first program of the season starts with a knock-out show with stand-up comedian Cyrus Steele on Sunday, September 15 at 7:00 p.m. If you have never attended a MAC show before, this would be a GREAT one to give MAC a try! Steele has guaranteed a laugh out loud show for the whole family with clean humor and humorous impressions. As a dynamic performer, Steele is quickly establishing himself to be a comedic force through his wit and hilarious celebrity impressions. He appeals to all audiences young and old, with clean comedy and mining humor from his Southern roots, growing up in Savannah, GA. He has performed at many of the nation’s best comedy venues, including the famous Apollo Theater. He won the South’s Funniest Accountant award in 2016, and in 2017, he was a top 5 finalist for HBO’s American Black Film Festival. In 2019, he was a finalist for Steve Harvey’s “Standup Spotlight.” And more recently he made an appearance on FOX’s “TMZ” and won their “Wacky Talent Competition.” In 2021, he dropped his first DryBar comedy special! And even more recently he’s become a viral sensation on TikTok, with over 6 million video views and counting! Tickets will be available at the door for $15 if you are not a MAC member, although you can also purchase a season membership at the door for all five shows. Children through age 18 will be admitted free! The performance will take place in the Central City Performing Arts Center, Edwin and Bernice Lock Theatre.
