He’s a graduate of Dieruff High School in Allentown, PA where he enjoyed quite a few nights of detention. Five hundred-plus shows after a chance meeting with Raymond the Amish Comic at a gym, Marc’s act has evolved into a polished crowd pleasing event. From making fun of his Bi-Racial heritage, family members and his encounters with people he’s found a niche in relating to all types of audiences. Marc’s also appeared on various TV Series including “LAW & ORDER” & “WITHOUT A TRACE”. Marc W. Juretus is a Comedian on the rise that you should definitely go see.
