Anthony Rodia The Road Rage Tour

NJ, United States

Comedian Anthony Rodia makes his State Theatre debut with The Road Rage Tour! A first-generation Italian-American born and raised in Westchester, NY, Rodia came out of the womb making people laugh. In his 20s he tried a few open mics, but ultimately took a different career path as a finance manager of a luxury car dealership. In 2019, Rodia returned to comedy and left his day job to become a full-time stand-up comic. He hit the ground running and performed 100 shows in just nine months, and within three years Rodia has gained a massive fan base online and around the country. In a very short time, Rodia gained over 900,000 social media followers and his YouTube videos have amassed over 22 million views. His comedy pulls from his real life and razor-sharp observations on marriage, parenthood, road rage, and everything else worthy of a social media rant. Rodia also hosts the weekly podcast, Little Bit of Laughs on Podcast One. He and his co-host Goumba get into hot topics, rants, pranks, and listener's questions and stories.
