Norm Crosby Returns to the Suncoast Showroom, 3/3 & 4

Norm Crosby brings his trademark act to the Suncoast Showroom March 3 and 4, each evening at 7:30 p.m.
 
Norm Crosby is known as “The Master of the Malaprop” for his ability to substitute words for similar sounding words to create an amusing phrase that ultimately makes little sense. His use of malapropisms and quick wit became lucrative as he began a stand-up career in the ‘50s as part of a comedy act with Ethan Eichrodt. Following a smash run with Eichrodt in Las Vegas, Crosby found success going solo, then went on to become a staple on the talk, variety and game show circuit in every decade since the ‘60s.
 
Crosby has performed or been a guest on multiple occasions on a variety of television shows, including “The Merv Griffin Show,” “The Ed Sullivan Show,” “The Dean Martin Comedy Hour” and “The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson,” among countless others. He has also appeared in popular game shows, including “The Hollywood Squares,” “Liar’s Club,” “Beat the Clock” and “Celebrity Sweepstakes.” In 2004, Crosby appeared on “Last Comic Standing” as part of the “Roast Challenge.”
 
As an actor, Crosby has appeared on television shows such as “Roseanne,” “The Love Boat,” “Diagnosis Murder,” “Law and Order” and “The Larry Sanders Show,” to name a few. On film, he has lent his voice to Adam Sandler’s “Eight Crazy Nights” and Bob Saget’s “Farce of the Penguins.”
 
Opening for Crosby at the Suncoast is legendary comedian Sammy Shore, founder of the Comedy Store on Los Angeles’ Sunset Strip. A fixture on the standup comedy circuit for decades, Shore is renowned as “The Man Who Made Elvis Laugh,” a title earned after Colonel Parker hand-picked him to open for the King during his 1969-72 Comeback Tour in Las Vegas.
 
Showtime is 7:30 p.m. Tickets are available starting from $15.95, plus tax and convenience fees. Tickets can be purchased at any Coast Casinos box office, by calling 702.636.7075 or visiting www.suncoastcasino.com.
