Almost two years ago, devotees of the long-running TruTv hit Impractical Jokers were bummed to see that after 9 successful seasons, fan favorite Joe Gatto was leaving the program. But fans who have sorely missed Gatto’s fearless wit are in luck, as the New York native is hitting the road...
But fans who have sorely missed Gatto’s fearless wit are in luck, as the New York native is hitting the road with a night of storytelling – and hitting Houston solo for the very first time.buddies to mess with him, what can audiences expect from this all new Joe Gatto experience? “It’s funny, let’s start there,” the comic says in his patented speedy deadpan. “People are wondering: are they going to laugh? Guaranteed. 3-5 laughs, in your pocket. My show is authentic.
Gatto says writing material is a bit different when plucking anecdotes from real life. “My format really is like storytelling with perspective, so I’ll always add a little bit of what I’m thinking in there. And that has been a big thing for me, so now as I am developing this hour – and I’ve been doing this hour for about 16 months now.
“The biggest thing for me became being a source of laughter. In the beginning, it was cool, you know? But soon you realize that you have become a part of people’s lives. How you help effect families. I remember growing up watching TV with my Dad, and we used to watchwith Tim Allen. Tim Allen was like the first stand up special that I saw. So to see that, to be that to people – it’s not lost on me. That’s a really cool thing for me. It’s unbelievable.
The comic is also pleased to highlight a few of the side projects he has been able to pursue now that his schedule is not as monopolized by filming full time. “ I host with my very good friend Steve Bryne, a very funny comedian friend of mine,” Gatto says. “We have known each other for a while and so when my schedule opened up and I was figuring out my new route, I knew I wanted to do something creatively together. We found a format pretty quickly because Steve and I are each other’s confidants.
