Filipino-American comedian Rex Navarrete, star of the stand-up DVDs Hella Pinoy, Badass Madapaka! and Komik Organik, headlines at Tommy T’s. After more than a decade in the business, this local Bay Area favorite has performed at clubs all over the country, not to mention Europe and Asia. And his comedy work extends to the internet, CDs and animation as well. Navarrete finds the universal humor in the American immigrant experience, while still managing to get in a few jabs at Filipino icons like boxer Manny Pacquiao.

Event Description: Rex Navarrete has performed his brand of comedy all across the nation touring numerous colleges, universities and community events. He has become a household name in Filipino American homes. In 1998, he released his first comedy CD entitled, “Badly Browned”, which was followed by another CD in the summer of 1999, “Husky Boy”. Both have become bestsellers on the Classified Records label and have brought high praise by listeners across the country.

In the summer of 2001, he released his third CD album this time under his own label Kakarabaw Productions entitled, “Bastos”.

As a major follow-up to the three CDs and touring like crazy in Asia and North America, he produced, directed and released “Hella Pinoy”, his first ever live standup DVD concert. Shot in San Francisco, it has all the hidden goodies including a feature-length performance, a behind the scenes documentary, his early days of standup and much more. It’s become a must have DVD in anyone’s comedy collection.
