Martin Lawrence: Comedian in New York

About Martin Lawrence

Martin Lawrence is an American comedian and actor whose early craft was shaped in stand-up rooms such as The Improv. He moved from television work in the late 1980s to co-creating and starring in the Fox sitcom *Martin*, then broadened his screen persona with film roles including Detective Sergeant Marcus Burnett in *Bad Boys* and its sequels. At Kings Theatre, he brings that stage-trained timing into a live setting. His approach favors character-driven rhythm over spectacle.
