Joe Scrocca

Started doing stand up at age 62. No background in any type of entertainment. Woke up one day in December 2023 and decided I was sick of dating crazy women so I tried standup to fill my time. Apparently I am very good at it. I have opened for national headliners including Steve Trevino, Eddie Ifft, Tony Woods and more. I had to follow a combined 40 minutes of Jim Gaffigan and Jerry Seinfeld at a new talent showcase at Gotham Comedy Club in New York City in 2025, kept the crowd going. I have been selected for a spot on the 2025 World Series of Comedy, selected for a spot in 2025 & 2026 Good Karma Comedy Festival. I have been interviewed on dozens of podcasts, Philly Fox 29, print/on line publications. I have performed in over 200 shows as an opener, host, feature and headliner. My material is based on my real life experiences. I have appeared in 2 indie films, Steinberg Plays Peoria Part II by award winning film maker Steve Oakley and All The Bands in the '80s by comedian, filmmaker Paul Hallasy. I travel all over the US to perform so don't let my home base deter you from reaching out. I have a tour of the Southeast set up for the March (2026) and the Midwest in April with my last show of the tour at the world famous Laugh Factory in Chicago. I have performed on stages in FL, NY, NJ, PA, CT, DE, MD, VA. Will add OH, IL, MI, SC & NC after the tour. My material is not geocentric so when I do a bit in NJ it has the same reaction if FL. Also, being of Italian descent I don't do a lot of Italian material, too many comics have done that to death. I do throw in an Italian bit from time to time but it's not the focus of my material. When you are ready to book me reach out and I will send you my EPK and other information. I do promote all of my shows. I don't do bringer shows but I promote my shows heavily. I don't drink, I don't do drugs and I don't gamble (pretty boring I know). I am reliable, I don't cancel gigs unless it is a true emergency and my motto is "early is on time, on time is late and late is unacceptable." I am usually the first comic at the venue, I prefer to arrive early then be pressured to "just make it". I am looking forward to hearing from bookers and producers to discuss having me perform at you venue/show. thank you!
