About this festival
?Ifft? you love to laugh, then Empire City Casino will be the place to be on the evening of March 25th, when Eddie Ifft headlines the award-winning Wednesday Comedy Night in the Good Time Room.
Accompanying Ifft on stage will be the hilarity of two local products ? featured performer, New York native Joe Praino, and the man from the Bronx, John Iavarone, as MC for the night. Doors will open at 7:00 pm, and the show will begin at 8:00 pm. Admission is $5 for Empire Club Members and $25 for all non-members. Elite Club and President-s Club members gain free admission to the show. All patrons receive a free drink ticket.
Ifft, a world traveler who has performed to sold-out crowds in over 20 countries from Australia to the United Kingdom, has starred on such nationally-recognized shows as Comedy Central, NBC-s Last Comic Standing, Showtime-s Tommy Chong 420, and as ?man-on-the-street? on the Queen Latifah Show.
Praino started doing stand-up regularly in New York City in 1999. He has been featured as part of the Boston Comedy Festival, High Times Magazine, CBS College Sports (formerly CSTV), the New York Surf Film Festival, the Lighthouse International Film Festival, and the Hamptons Film Festival.
Whether it's a quick 8-minute or full-length 38 minute set at a club, corporate function, private party or fundraiser, Iavarone's audience describes his hysterically funny set as honest, original, and animated! He will take on current events, marriage, children, and more.
