Sean O’Connor, New York Post’s “Top 20 Comics to Watch,” Hits Comix at Foxwoods

MASHANTUCKET, Conn. - Nov. 12, 2014 - PRLog -- Comix at Foxwoods will play host West Coast stand-up favorite and the New York Post’s “Top 20 Comics to Watch” Sean O’Connor for a three-night, four-performance show, which gets under way on Thursday, Nov. 27 at 8:00 p.m.

LA-based comedian Sean O'Connor has climbed his way through the comedy ranks to become one of the most sought after stand-up acts in the country. O’Connor’s unique soft-spoken delivery makes his foibles and lapses in judgment, which are presented to the audience, all the more enjoyable and entertaining.

What feels like a run of self-deprecating jokes is actually O’Connor’s conscious strategy to invoke audience sympathy and keep them engaged throughout his performances. O’Connor’s approach is far more elemental to his being, arising naturally from his wavering attention span and overall blundering approach to life.

O’Connor has been named the New York Post’s “Top 20 Comics to Watch,” was voted the “New Face in 2011” at the “Montreal Just For Laughs Comedy Festival,” and has appeared on TBS’ “Conan” twice.  O’Connor has also been featured on a variety of Vh1 and MTV shows.

O’Connor is not just a stand-up act, but a writer, as well. He has written for a variety of television and award shows including MTV's “Video Music Awards,” “The Sports Show with Norm Macdonald,” “Upload with Shaquille O'Neal” and “The Ben Show” on Comedy Central.

O’Connor currently is the co-host of two different comedy webseries. One with one with Julian McCullough  and another he created with Ralph Arend called "Sean and Meghan."
