Every heckler is unique because they say something, and you react to what they say or what they're wearing or who they're with, so every response to a heckle is unique. Sebastian Maniscalco hecklehecklerreact Change image and share on social
I remember when I was young, I was watching TV, and my father came into the room, agitated, and told me to start a business. I was eight years old. Sebastian Maniscalco agitatebusinessfather Change image and share on social
Sometimes it's cool to have banter with the audience. Occasionally, somebody will say something, and I'll say something right back, and everybody laughs, and it's funny. Sebastian Maniscalco audiencebackbant Change image and share on social
The business of being told to earn a dollar, that no one is going to give you anything - that was kind of my mantra throughout my childhood, and now it's in my adult life. I find that people really tend to relate to the immigrant father, whether he be Italian, Greek, Spanish or whatever. Sebastian Maniscalco adultbusinesschildhood share on social
I started working full time as a comedian in 2005, shortly after we did the Vince Vaughn 'Wild West Comedy Show.' I worked at the Four Seasons hotel from 1998 to 2005, so about seven years, just trying to put some food on the table and pay the rent while I went out to the open mics and got my feet wet with stand-up comedy.

I give a facial expression in a moment of silence for audiences to react to what I just said and kind of let that marinate with the audience for a little bit. I enjoy the physical part of the comedy as much as the verbal content. People tend to gravitate to not only what they're hearing but also what they're seeing.
