COMEDY MASTERS - with Roger Behr, Harry Basil and Jeff Altman
ROGER BEHR's performances showcase his talents as a stand-up comic, vocalist and actor. Behr offers a wide range of caricatures of top forty artists that vary from the hard-edged Axl Rose of Guns 'n Roses to the sultry, sexy voice of George Michael to the down-home country twang of Garth Brooks. Reviews across the country have singled out Roger Behr's "sense of satire and parody" and his "exact carbons of celebrity voices, all rolled up into a multi-talented, sharp-witted lunatic." As an actor, he was featured in Albert Brooks' hit filmDefending Your Life, starring Brooks and Meryl Streep. Behr has performed on Showtime At The Apollo, An Evening At The Improv, and in a recurring role on the award-winning children's series, Zooblee Zoo. A veteran of more than 200 television and radio commercials, Behr most notably was the voice of "Mac Tonight" for McDonald's. Behr also had a guest starring role on the hit sitcom, Mad About You.
HARRY BASIL is a human movie trailer, taking his audience on a wild romp through current and classic films. More than an impressionist, he physically and vocally takes on a wide variety of unforgettable actors and movie characters, pulling unsuspecting audience members up on stage to act as his costars. After being hand picked by Rodney Dangerfield for the 9th Annual HBO Young Comedian's Special, Harry became Rodney's exclusive opening act for 17 years. He also co-wrote and co-produced three of Dangerfield's movies: Ladybugs, Meet Wally Sparks, and My Five Wives. Other film work includes Peggy Sue Got Married and The Seventh Sign. Harry has been a frequent favorite on many of the standup comedy shows. He's appeared on Evening at the Improv, Carolines Comedy Hour, Comedy Central, MTV, Showtime and HBO.
To witness a performance by JEFF ALTMAN is to realize that there are still a few people in show business who desperately need medication. On stage, he is transforms into various strange characters that illicit spontaneous vocalizations and bizarre incantations. It is the way in which Jeff combines physical comedy with keen, honest observations about life that makes him unique and interesting as well as one of the most sought-after comedians in the country - in both television and live appearances. He appears regularly on The Late Show With David Letterman, has guest-starred in dozens of network prime-time shows, and has produced and starred in two critically-acclaimed Showtime specials; Jeff Altman 's Scrapbook and Sweet & Meaty. Film credits include Highlander II, American Hot Wax, Soul Man and Easy Money. |
