Jim Caruso's Cast Party will make a return visit to the Alexis Park All-Suite Resort on Wednesday, September 21 and Thursday, September 22.
Cast members, musicians and fans from Las Vegas hang out, meet new friends and entertain each other at the baby grand, which is what makes it a Cast Party! At the premiere in August, performers included Vegas favorite Clint Holmes, show business legend Mimi Hines, headliners from strip extravaganzas like Frankie Moreno, Reva Rice, Eric Jordan Young, and cast members from Jersey Boys, The Lion King, and Vegas: The Show. The upcoming September Cast Party promises even more celebrities.Jim Caruso's Cast Party has been dubbed "an extreme open mic" by ABC-TV, "the gold standard of open mics" by The Wall Street Journal, and "the place to be for those with songs on their lips" by The New York Times. Now in it's 8th year, and selling out every Monday night at Birdland in New York City, Cast Party participants represent all aspects of the entertainment industry. Singers from the Las Vegas strip, Broadway, the concert stage, TV and recordings are most prevalent, but there are also magicians, comedians and instrumentalists taking the stage.
Host Jim Caruso, who recently made his Broadway debut in the Tony-winning Liza's At The Palace, guides the festivities like "a cross between Letterman and Joan Rivers." Musical director/accompanist Billy Stritch is a Grammy-winning composer who also dazzles in the singing department. The duo teams up for musical duets and comic observations reminiscent of the Hope & Crosby and Martin & Lewis duos.Talented locals are encouraged to perform.
