Catch A Rising Star to Bring Vic DiBitetto to Ocean State Theatre, 5/3

Ocean State Theatre Company (OSTC), the not-for-profit professional theatre company, currently celebrating its third season in Warwick, along with the legendary comedy club, Catch A Rising Star, has announced the appearance of comedian Vic DiBetetto at Ocean State Theatre on Sunday, May 3 at 7:30pm.

Currently featured in Kevin James' new movie Mall Cop: Blart 2, Vic DiBitetto is an incredibly powerful performer, who churns energy, honesty and humanity into nonstop laughter. His pace is frenetic. His material vivid and true. He's been called a cross between Rodney Dangerfield and Ralph Kramden. The bottom line is, DiBitetto leaves his audiences breathless with laughter. Referred to by most other comics as a "killer," it means you can't follow Vic onstage, which has been uttered by many very famous stand-ups over the years.

Writing and producing his "Ticked Off Vic" segment for WPLJ in New York City, which reaches 3 million people, DiBitetto has become an Internet Sensation with over 20 million YouTube views of his now famous "Bread and Milk" and Justin Bieber viral rants.

Vic has appeared on television's "America's Funniest People" (ABC), where he was a $10,000 Grand Prize winner as well as "Stand-Up Spotlight" (VH1) and "Last Laugh at Pips," and acted in a pilot with Woody Allen and Danny Aiello. In addition, he has warmed-up hundreds of audiences for hit shows such as "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" and "The Ricki Lake Show."

Vic has performed at many of the nation's best comedy venues such as New York City's Dangerfield's, Los Angeles' Laugh Factory, Las Vegas' Riviera Hotel, Resorts World Casino and Atlantic City's Borgata Hotel. His schedule is relentless and he is booked thru 2015 at every comedy venue imaginable in the New York Tri-State area. A Pay Per View special and US Tour are in current discussions.

Vic DiBitetto will be at Ocean State Theatre on Sunday, May 3 at 7:30 pm. The theatre is located at 1245 Jefferson Boulevard, Warwick, RI. Premium seats are $44 and standard seats are $29. Tickets are on sale at the box office Monday through Friday from 12 noon - 6:00 pm, Saturdays from 12 noon - 4:00 pm and from 12 noon until curtain on performance days. Tickets are also available online 24 hours a day at www.OceanStateTheatre.org and via telephone during normal box office hours by calling (401) 921-6800.
