Laugh Big at Comedy on the Coast
Laugh with the one you love on
Valentine’s weekend (Feb. 13-14) at
Comedy on the Coast. Max Alexander
will headline the show, with Mike
Dugan as the featured comedian and
Cork Proctor as host.
As one of only six living comics
who have performed on both Leno’s and
Carson’s The Tonight Show, Max
Alexander’s humor is always a big hit
wherever he performs. His funny and
clean insights into everyday life have
made him a favorite opening act for
such stars as Frank Sinatra, Julio
Iglesias, and Tom Jones.
Alexander can be seen in such films
as Man on the Moon, Punchline, and
Roxanne, and on television in The
Practice, Matlock, My Wife And Kids,
and Doogie Howser, M.D.
Mike Dugan has written for
television series and specials for a long
list of comedians, including Dennis
Miller, Keenen Ivory Wayans, Tom
Arnold, and Paul Rodriguez. In 1994,
he received an Emmy Award for writing
February 2004
Max Alexander
for his work on Dennis Miller: Live
on HBO.
Dugan began performing standup
in 1985 at New York’s famed Catch A
Rising Star comedy club, along with
fellow up-and-coming comedians
Adam Sandler, Dennis Miller, and Jon
Stewart. In 1988, he won the coveted
San Francisco International Standup
Comedy Competition.
Cork Proctor is the consummate
professional Las Vegas comedian and
is the self-proclaimed “Roast Master
General of the United States.” He’s
performed at every major casino in Las
Vegas, including some that are no
longer standing.
Realizing that he wasn’t suited for
the business world, Proctor went into
comedy at age 40. Since then, he’s
opened for Lee Greenwood, Mel Tillis,
and Roberta Flack, to name a few.
Doors open at 7:30 p.m.; the show
starts at 8 p.m. A no-host bar will be
available. Tickets, priced at $12, are
available at the box office.
