The Comedy Works

Kurt Metzger is one of the most talented writers and stand up comedians today. A Philadelphia native, Kurt started in the local scene with friends and comedians Kevin Hart and Big Jay Oakerson. Kurt moved on to New York, where he performs regularly at New York's top comedy clubs, including Stand Up NY, Caroline’s on Broadway, Gotham Comedy Club, and the famed Comedy Cellar. A local favorite, he was accepted to Montreal's prestigious Just For Laughs Festival, where he was a standout performer on their ‘New Faces’ show.

Jamie Kennedy is a multi-faceted talent having found success as a stand-up comedian, an actor, a writer and as a producer. As a teenager growing up near Philadelphia Kennedy got a taste of Hollywood working as an extra in Dead Poets Society. A year later he moved out to Los Angeles at age 18 and began performing improvisational & stand-up comedy. Kennedy skyrocketed to fame with a groundbreaking performance and scene-stealing rants in Wes Craven's Scream and Scream 2. On the screen he has been featured in “The Jamie Kennedy Experiment”, “Three Kings”, “Boiler Room” and many more. Over the past three decades, when not working on TV & film projects, Kennedy has continued to perform stand-up comedy around the world.

One of the longest-running cast members in the 41-year history of “Saturday Night Live,” versatile comedian Tim Meadows crafted some of the series’ most memorable characters during his 10 years on the popular late night show. Such characters included Leon Phelps, The Ladies Man and Lionel Osbourne, host of the fictional public affairs show, “Perspectives,” as well as uncanny impressions of OJ Simpson, Ike Turner and Sammy Davis Jr.

He’s been called a “cross between Rodney Dangerfield and Ralph Kramden” and “The Italian Hurricane of Comedy,” but Vic DiBitetto is truly a talent like no other. Famous for his frenetic pace, vivid language and punchline-a-second style, DiBitetto has been known to whip the crowd into a hysterical frenzy. His own sitcom (Hulu’s Don’t Know Jack) was the latest in a long list of achievements for this Brooklyn-born comic, including winning America’s Funniest People on ABC and racking up 22 million views on YouTube (check out his “Bread and Milk” sketch and Justin Bieber rants). Now, after dabbling in film (Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2) and headlining top clubs on both coasts, this hugely talented entertainer steps up to the mic at the Comedy Works at The Plaza Hotel & Casino for 4 shows in Las Vegas!
