Craig Gass*Special Engagement* September 4, 2008

It’s the return of this hilarious jokester from New York City.

Gass has been "performing stand-up comedy since 1993 when he decided to get revenge on a group of comedians who had ridiculed him for attempting to perform at an open mic." He acquired his peculiar talent of imitating characters and actors by learning to speak as a child from watching TV. Both his parents and sister are completely deaf. With his family unable to serve as a model for how to speak, Gass grew up imitating the voices on TV. Gass inherited the ability to hear from his father, a man born with all his hearing but who lost it later in life. In 2002, Gass found work on HBO’s “Sex in the City.” He claims to have put on over 30 pounds for his role as Tom "Big Boned" in the episode: "Cover Girl". He co-starred with Alec Baldwin on NBC’s “Las Vegas” in early 2005 where he played a comedian, "Richie Phillips", who would begin his act by stirring people's drinks with his penis. Other television highlights include a guest spot on “Law & Order” and some commercial work for AT&T and Smirnoff. In 2004, Gass played the new driver in the episode "Entertainment Weakly" of “King of Queens.” You’ve also seen him last summer on ABC’s reality show “Next Best Thing,” a show featuring impressionists. His Al Pacino impression is stellar and mixed with all his other voices - his show is outstanding!!

IT’S A DON’T MISS SHOW FOR THOSE WHO LIKE THEIR COMEDY POLITICALLY INCORRECT!! If you are easily offended we recommend you do not attend.
