David Alan Grier

From humor to tragedy, television to theater, acting to writing, David Alan Greir has found success on just about every stage. He’s probably best-known for his characters Al MacAfee, an extremely annoying shop teacher with a megaphone, and Mr. Brooks, a senior citizen with a penchant for arguing with his wife on the Emmy-winning comedy show In Living Color. However, his earliest gigs included playing Jackie Robinson in The First and starring opposite Denzel Washington in A Soldier’s Story on Broadway. His laurels include making Comedy Central’s 100 Greatest Stand-ups of All Time List, three Grammy nominations and a Tony nomination. This Saturday, he brings his many talents to the Queensborough Performing Arts Center, where he will perform with another multi-faceted comedian, Godfrey.
