Actor. Comedian. Lawyer. Judge.
The multi-faceted Vince August made his standup comedy debut at Caroline’s on Broadway in 1997.
Over the next 17 years, he continued to hone his skills and is now recognized as one of the very best at improvisation and standup comedy. Vince has also made a name for himself on-camera as a regular actor on the wildly popular ABC-TV hidden-camera series, “Primetime: What Would You Do?”. Vince has also appeared in the documentary film “Heckler,” soap opera “As The World Turns”, “The Onion News Network” and
national television and radio commercials. Hopefully some of you do not recognize Vince from his other, very different profession. As a Municipal Judge from 2007 – 2013, Vince donned judicial robes and presided over court cases in suburban NJ. The international news surrounding Vince’s dual careers caught the world by storm in September 2013 when the New Jersey Supreme Court gave Vince an agonizing ultimatum: choose between being his passion for the law as Judge and his passion for entertainment. Vince chose his entertainment passion, resigning from the bench, because in the end “you never give up on a dream.” Vince has closed more shows at Caroline’s since 2009 than any other comic. He is a regular closer for the New Talent shows and recently become one of the warm up comics for the most heralded comedy in television history, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.
