Mark Riccadonna is a proud native of Youngstown, Ohio, who moved to New York after high school to study at the prestigious American Academy of Dramatic Arts, at the age of seventeen. After Graduation he was selected to represent his class in AADA’s exclusive Theatre Company. Mark then continued his studies at The Upright Citizens Brigade, learning from Ian Roberts and Amy Poehler, while continuing his love of the art at The Peoples Improv Theatre and Neighborhood Playhouse. Mark began standup comedy accidentally, as a struggling actor waiting tables at a comedy club in New York City. “Why not watch comedy while you are waiting tables?” he thought. One night a comic didn’t show, so the host brought Mark on stage to repeat the stories he heard Mark tell earlier. Mark was a tremendous success and continued performing, yielding opportunities to work with legends of comedy, Jerry Seinfeld, Robin Williams, Dave Attell, Dave Chappelle, Freddy Roman, Chris Rock, Jim Bruer and Carl Labove. Currently, Mark tours across the nation and world performing stand up comedy as a hailed act. He teams up with incredible talent with the “Average White Guy Tour” and USO, with the “Armed Forces Comedy Tour”. Mark writes and acts in short films, works as a voice over artist and on-camera talent (in several national commercials and appearances on Spike TV, Good morning America, Maury Povich, The History Channel and SPEED Network). Mark may be heard on Sirius and XM digital radio and is in the International Film “Alibi”. He has acted, written and directed several Independent Films and was just in an Off-Broadway show, "Happy in the Poorhouse" which received amazing reviews. Mark is currently in the Laughing Skull Festival and 360 Comedy Festival, while writing a new pilot due out in fall. “Laddie’s: Good food, good times.”
