    The Improv Comedy Showcase and Restaurant presents Maz Jobrani.

    Maz Jobrani has played many characters in flim and televison. Most recently, he played Gourishankar P.V. Subramamiam, an Indian lawyer turned NY cab driver who took part in the plot to rob Mick Jagger in the ABC sitcom "Knights of Prosperity." Prior to that he was best known for his big screen role as "Moly" in Ice Cube's "Friday After Next." He also played Secret Service Agent "Mo" in the Sydney Pollack thriller "The Interpreter," opposite Sean Penn and Nicole Kidman as well as Jennifer Garner's colleague, Glenn, in "13 Going on 30."

    Television audiences may recognize Jobrani from his role as Mr. Hut, the angry owner of a fast food stand in the town's mall on the Fox sitcom "Life on a Stick." He also appeared in recurring roles on "24" (Season Two), "Life with Bonnie" and "Cedric the Entertainer Presents." His numerous guest appearances include both popular comedy and dramatic series such as "Malcolm in the Middle," "Still Standing," "The West Wing," "NYPD Blue," "Without a Trace," "ER," "Law and Order," and a memorable turn as "The Sikh" in the hilarious 2004 season finale of "Curb Your Enthusiasm."

    Additionally Jobrani is a member of the Axis of Evil Comedy Tour, which features some of the top Middle Eastern-American comics in the world. The Axis of Evil Comedy Central Special premiered in 2007 as the first all Middle Eastern show on American TV. The DVD was also released in 2007. The world tour continues and dates can be found at www.axisofevilcomedy.

    He has done standup on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," "The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson," "The Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn," Comedy Central's "Premium Blend," and England's Paramount 2 Network.
