Soon he’ll be making the Garden State laugh with his new show “Jeff Ross: Take a Banana for the Ride.” The Roastmaster will exclusively tour this show on Hard Rock stages this summer before heading to Broadway.

Named for his beloved grandfather's travel advice, the intimate one-man show offers a peeled back (see what he did there?) look into the heart and soul of Ross.

Ever since my Aunt Bess took me to see Jackie Mason on Broadway when I was young, I’ve daydreamed about performing my own classy and uncensored one-man show,” said Jeff Ross. “I’m honored and excited by the opportunity to share my origin story of how I became the Roastmaster General!

The shows are set for Friday and Saturday, July 18 and 19 at 8 p.m. in the Sound Waves Theater.

This new show is designed to be a cathartic experience shared with others – I encourage you to bring friends that you care about, people that might be going through tough times.
