Coming February 10 & 11.
Hilariously entertaining and energetic, Eric Schwartz aka Smooth-E electrifies audiences with his blend of stand-up, music and video. Behind this geeky facade lies a multi-dimensional showman whose creations have been seen on “The Tonight Show,” Showtime, E!, BET, The CW, TMZ, G4 and more.
In fall of 2011, Eric debuts as the host of his own TV show, “On The Spot,” which airs nationally in syndication on CW, ABC, CBS and NBC stations. Each week, he takes to the streets to ask trivia questions people should probably know the answers to…but do they?
One of the internet’s hottest stars, “E! News Daily” host Ryan Seacrest says he is “rocking the web” with “video that’s got everyone Googling.” Grammy Award winner Jason Mraz tapped Eric to create a series of comedy promos for his summer tour entitled “Grati-Tube.”
