× Getting Real with Rob Schneider
Rob Schneider is many things—an actor, a producer, and a writer, but most of all, he’s a comedian. Throughout the years, Schneider’s been dishing out a belly busting, tears rolling down your face, can’t catch your breath brand of laughter.
brbrHe spent four seasons on the hit show, Saturday Night Live, where he continued to develop his relationship with fellow comedian, Adam Sandler. The best part about Schneider? He is so versatile, that when it comes to acting, no matter what role you throw his way, he not only evolves into that character, but he excels at it. This can be seen through some of Schneider’s well-known films including 50 First Dates, Hot Chick, Deuce Bigalow, Grown Ups, The Benchwarmers, Mr. Deeds, Big Daddy, and so on.
brContinuing his career in Sandler films, catch Schneider as part of the Netflix original film, Sandy Wexler, set to release April 14, 2017.
brbrDon’t miss Rob Schneider at Rams Head On Stage Saturday, March 18th at 6 p.m. & 9 p.m. Tickets are $45.
