Headliner: Mark Knope
Is a "middle" child. No big surprise there, eh? Many believe Mark's sense of humor was developed at a VERY early age...by accident!
A few days after he was born - on the ride home from the hospital - his paternal grandfather insisted on carrying his new grandson home! Well, this was in the middle of December and little MARK was completely bundled up from head-to-toe - it wasn't until his mother unwrapped him and took him from his grandpa's arms that anyone realized - GRANDPA HAD BEEN HOLDING MARK UPSIDE-DOWN DURING THE ENTIRE RIDE HOME FROM THE HOSPITAL!
Do you think having all that blood rushing into his tiny little melon at the tender age of THREE DAYS caused any confusion in his thought-process during the rest of his life?
Hmmm...?
He's been married once and divorced - however, the best part of being married was when his son was born! Andrew is now a graduate of the University of Arizona and is a Captain (and helicopter pilot) in the United States Marine Corps - he served a tour of Afghanistan during 2010. (Sorry ladies, Andrew got married to his wife, Lauren; in May of 2009; at a beautiful ceremony in Chesapeake Bay, MD.)
Being divorced many years ago, Mark designated himself a "BORN-AGAIN BACHELOR" a term that was coined when he first started doing standup!
BUT WAIT! Exactly WHEN did MARK get started with this whole "comedy-thing?"
Looking back on things, he certainly has had a wealth of experiences with which to draw material from...
MARK got his start in professional comedy at an open-mic night at the New Chinatown restaurant in Albuquerque, NM; back in March of 1986!
Mark returned to the Midwest in the late 90's - eventually, re-locating to Toledo, OH; in 2004.
For over a quarter-century, Mark has been making people laugh - in clubs, at colleges, casinos - you NAME it! You wanna "bet on a winner?" Bet on MARK KNOPE!
MARK has performed in 45 of these United States - with over 5,000 shows under his belt!
He covers his material in a fun and energetic manner - peppering in sound effects, quirky facial expressions and a few celebrity impressions along the way! He never stays on a particular subject too long - he shifts his show's gears from tattoos to golf...then, on to "dating grandmothers" and breast implants!
COMCAST'S Comedy Spotlight on the Road, COMEDY CENTRAL'S Stand-Up, Stand-up, Nightshift on FOX, America's Funniest People and Comedy at CLUB54 are all television shows that have featured Mark over the years.
Since 1986, MARK has had the good fortune of working with many HEAVYWEIGHTS in the standup biz! He's opened for George Lopez, Kevin James, Harland Williams, Richard Lewis, Bobcat Goldthwaite, Tommy Chong, Bobby Collins, and Tommy Davidson!
