A native of Michigan, Brandon T. Jackson moved to Los Angeles to pursue stand-up comedy, opening for acts ranging from Chris Tucker to Wayne Brady. Soon, he was landing movie gigs left and right, and had his breakout role in the film Roll Bounce, which led to supporting roles in Tropic Thunder, Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief, among other blockbusters. He even scored a starring role in Big Mommas: Like Father, Like Son alongside Martin Lawrence. Now you can see him on the NBC sitcom Mr. Robinson and hear his voice on the animated Netflix series BoJack Horseman. But for Brandon, it all comes back to stand-up, and you have the chance to see him live at the Tempe Improv Comedy Theatre.
