Location Zanies Nashville Comedy Night Club 2025 8th Ave S Nashville, TN 37204 BIO: Actor and comedian Jay Pharoah is one of the industry's most highly-anticipated leading men. Last summer, he hosted Season 1 of the FOX game show The Quiz With Balls, which became the network’s most watched summer debut in two years. The show pits brains against balls by combining a high-stakes quiz show with a large-scale physical competition. Each episode features two families competing for $100,000 in a “battle of the balls”. The hit show has been renewed for a second season and will return later this year. Pharoah topped off his memorable 2024 summer with his sophomore comedy special, JARED, released exclusively on YouTube reaching over 1.5 million viewers. In the hour long special, Pharoah delivers a fully charged performance, ripping the lid off pop culture, his suburban upbringing, and run-in with the law, all while sharing his unique perspective on self-discovery and resilience in a world that never stops laughing. On the film side, Pharoah most recently appeared in the Toronto International Film Festival triumph, The Blackening. The film sold out of the festival to Lionsgate and was released in 2023 on Juneteenth. In the last few years, Pharoah has appeared in the Neil Bogart/Casablanca Records biopic Spinning Gold, Comedy Central’s Out of Office and in Lionsgate’s Running on Empty. Pharoah also starred in Netflix’s Resort to Love and in the Lionsgate thriller Private Property as well as co-starred in Universal’s All My Life, Justin Simien’s critically acclaimed feature film Bad Hair for Hulu, and in Lionsgate’s 2 Minutes of Fame. On the small screen, Pharoah starred as “J.J. Evans” in ABC’s Emmy Award-winning Live in Front of a Studio Audience version of All In The Family and Good Times. He previously hosted and produced the Nickelodeon hit gameshow Unfiltered.
