one-liners, jokes and wisecracks

Norm Crosby mangling the English language and Stewie Stone getting
the most laughter from any topic.
These Atlantic City favorites will
provide a hilarious night of Comedy.
Norm Crosby
referred to by his peers as the
Master of the Malaprop,
is among the most widely quoted
show business performer! He speaks
from his "diagram" and drinks "decapitated’ coffee. His confusing
word play and twisted speech has been an audience favorite since his
days on The
Ed Sullivan Show. Even though his schedule is full, he always
makes time
for charitable causes like The Muscular Dystrophy Association. He
has hosted a myriad of talk shows, game shows and variety shows,
including his own popular series, Norm Crosby’s Comedy Shop
and appeared in several motion pictures including Mulholland Falls.
His
unwavering dedication to charitable
causes has earned him the coveted
Victory Award, presented to him by President Bush! In 1982, the Norm
Crosby Star was installed on the
Hollywood Walk of Fame. |

Dick Capri
has taken the comedy world by
storm and has left millions laughing
in his comedic wake. In a career that spans two continents, he has played
entertainment mediums including nightclubs, theaters, resorts and
arenas, as well as on Broadway and national TV. He has worked with Tom Jones,
Liza Minnelli and Frank Sinatra among others. Born in Reading,
Pennsylvania, Dick started his show business career, believe it or not, as a
clerk in his father’s grocery store doing comedy mimes of the customers.
When he ran out of characters there,
he left the store to become a
full-fledged impressionist and
developed the unique comedic
style that has become his trademark.

Ticket information
Stewie Stone
Pick a topic... any topic...
and Stewie will have a
comment, to evoke the most
laughter from the situation. Performing before audiences worldwide in every type
of venue, Stewie is a comedic entertainer of note. Born and
raised in Brooklyn, he started
his career as a drummer, later switching to comedy. He loves
to make people laugh, particularly his lovely and lively wife, Frani,
whom he met at a club at a
Catskill hotel. Recently, at a
show in Atlantic City, he set
the tone right away, sauntering
out in a tux, delivering jokes in
a New Yawwwwk drawl so
thick you could cut it with
a lox knife. "I do the same
jokes everywhere I go. You
think it’s easy? You try doing
Jewish jokes in Montana. I
said to someone when I
was there ‘Where do Jews
hang out in Montana?’ He said
‘That tree.’". Or... marrying the
same woman twice, (which
he really did): "It’s like
breaking out of jail and
then breaking back in!"
