Cool Cow Comedy Presents BIG PANTS & HOT FLASHES with KEVIN MEANEY AND JULIA SCOTTI!! (Special 2 Show Event)

Cool Cow Comedy Presents the BIG PANTS & HOT FLASHES with KEVIN MEANEY AND JULIA SCOTTI!! (Special 2 Show Event) -- January 23rd

Kevin Meaney: With an inspired blend of lunacy that includes physical humor, impersonations, stylized caricatures of nightclub singers and his signature “man on the street” interviews. Emmy Award winner KEVIN MEANEY has been one of the country’s most popular standup comedians for more than 25 years.

Tom Shale’s of the Washington Post said, “Picture the precocious love child of Jonathan Winters and Ethel Merman and you have some idea of Kevin Meaney’s act.”

Making people laugh has always been a top priority for Kevin. From his early years doing standup comedy in San Francisco and Boston he’s amassed an impressive list of credits along the way. His first HBO special in 1986 catapulted him to the forefront of the comedy scene. In 1987 Kevin made his debut appearance on, “The Tonight Show” with Johnny Carson and was invited by Johnny to join the guest panel. Since his first appearance Kevin has returned to the show a dozen times. He was a special guest on Saturday Night Live and has appeared on Letterman, Regis, Oprah and Conan.

Julia Scotti: “Hilarious, powerful, dynamic, real…if you combine Sam Kinison and Mrs. Doubtfire you have Julia Scotti!”

Julia Scotti is changing how we think about age and a WHOLE lot more. Originally headlining across the country in the 80’s and 90’s as Rick Scotti, she appeared on the original Comedy Central and was the winner of Showtime’s Funniest Person in America contest for New Jersey, she lost the finals to Ellen DeGeneres. In 2000, she left comedy and after much soul searching underwent her life-changing transition.

Following a stint at teaching, Julia realized she had some unfinished comedy business and in 2011 returned to the stage, and with her return it is obvious she has found her hilarious voice! Her amazing ability to tackle serious issues with extremely relatable humor has audiences of all ages and backgrounds falling in love with this “crazy old lady of comedy”. Julia is a regular at Planet Hollywood, Las Vegas and the Borgata, Atlantic City.
