BILL COSBY ON TOUR:
Legendary family funnyman Bill Cosby has been making America laugh for over half a century, proving that clean, wholesome humor still has a welcome place in today's stand-up circuit. From his days as Jell-O's spokesman to his role on the eponymous Cosby Show, his folksy demeanor and all-inclusive comedy have made him a national treasure, with a fanbase that spans generations. Hot on the heels of 2013'S Bill Cosby: Far From Finished — his first TV standup special in 30 years — Cosby is once again on tour, treating audiences around the country to his signature brand of family-friendly comedy.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Born and raised in Philadelphia, Cosby was a class clown as a young student, but he was also a high achiever, acting as captain of the baseball team and class president. After a demanding work schedule led him to drop out of school, he joined the Navy, continuing to hone his comedic talent while shooting the breeze with fellow servicemen. Soon after his time in the service, Cosby began performing at clubs around the country, ultimately landing a pivotal spot on NBC's Tonight Show. That appearance gained him the exposure he needed to break into acting, paving the way for his Emmy-nominated role on the show I Spy and his popular Saturday morning cartoon Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids. His biggest success, however, was the era-defining Cosby Show, which dominated airwaves in the '80s as the most popular TV show in the country for five straight seasons. In addition to numerous acclaimed acting roles, Cosby has continued to perform and record stand-up over the years, racking up a whopping nine Grammys for his comedy albums and cementing his place among the giants of American comedy.
FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:
"Enjoyed 2hours of laughs! He combined some old material with new material and the result was great laughs. It was a pleasure to experience good clean fun --- no profanity or descriptive sexual encounters used to get a cheap laugh."
"Still he can captivate an audience for 2 1/2 hours while sitting in his chair just telling us hilarious stories as if he was in our living room, just making us laugh our heads off!"
"Cosby is a master. He spoke for 2.5 hours without a note or a prompt. He just told funny story after funny story."
Bill Cosby is a good as ever......................
Bill Cosby is always entertaining . He gave an excellent show and kept the audience in stitches . Good show !
Bill Cosby remains one of the best comedians, ever! I was amazed and impressed that this man at his age can still make me laugh so hard.He has a wonderful gift of being able to capture the humor of everyday life .... in families, relationships, work, in ways that everyone can relate to. And he does so without being vulgar, nasty or cruel. Wish more comedians could be like Cosby!!!
Although in his late 70s now, Bill Cosby still has the whole audience laughing!
Bill Cosby is a natural. Love it that he uses real live experiences in his act. The best show that I have ever seen in comedy act. Bill Cosby is fantastic and he is a wonderful individual..
He really was incredibly funny and his material is so relatable to his audience...... and NOT a single swear word to boot!.... so refreshing!!
from start to finish , the entire show was unbelievable, non stop laughing, only downfall is you can't take pictures, other than that it was great
It was hestrical, inspiring and truly amazing. Bill Cosby was really on his game. He really knew how to captivate his audience with stories of the past and present, it was easy to visualize.
We went to see Bill Cosby years ago, when he first started at Hamilton Place, and we laughed through his whole show. and we once again had the wonderful opportunity to see him again, and he had the "whole" audience laughing from beginning to end. For me the best comedy is when you can take times from your own family and life and see the funny moments that bring laughter and joy to you and others.. Bill Cosby, you have not lost your touch, I am so glad we were able to get tickets to your show, and I would deffintely recommend it to everyone. God Bless you for being able to do comedy and not feel the need to make it vulgar as too many comics do today, the majority of people "do not" find vulgarity and insults at the expense of others, funny in the least... so THANK "YOU" Bill, for bringing good old fashion "clean" comedy and laughter to us..
Bill was hillarious and definitely still got it! This is the second time I have seen him and hopefully it won't be the last!
Not as good as I remembered him. I saw him in Vegas many years ago he was fantastic that night.
Bill is a great storyteller! We loved his facial expressions. I grew up listening to his childhood stories and watching his tv shows. It was great to see him in person and listen to his insights on life and love.
I saw Bill Cosby perform on Jack Parr over 50 years ago have seen him in live performances many times. The wonderful thing about Bill he is still as current in his delivery as ever, someone you'd take your Grandmother to!
Grew up on The Cosby Show, so it was neat to see Bill Cosby in person. He was really funny and seemed like such a nice guy, I would definitely recommend this show.
He was simply amazing. I'm so happy i got to see him. I grew up to his jokes. Awesome and clean humour. :-)
WENT TO SEE BILL COSBY JUNE 1ST AT THE RIVER ROCK CASINO...IT WAS MY 45TH BIRTHDAY AND I WAS SO HAPPY TO HAVE SHARED IT WITH BILL... HE WAS HILARIOUS....I WAS CRYING I WAS LAUGHING SO MUCH...GO SEE HIM IF YOU GET A CHANCE...75 YEARS YOUNG AND STILL SILENCES A CROWD
Mr. Cosby is one amazing fellow. At 75 you'd think he would have slowed down . . . i guess it's sorta slower that he's sitting in a chair while he does his schtick. but that only made it feel like we were sitting in a living room together just relaxing and telling stories. his interactions with the audience were quite entertaining. his stories were absolutely marvelous. Having attended a couple of shows in the past couple of years with folks like Carol Burnet and Tim Conway, I expected a bit of a retrospective type show. But it was all original stuff. YAY Bill!
Bill Cosby is terrific - so laid back and HILARIOUS.
Oh what a night! Mr. Cosby was right on and stayed for 90 mins straight. It was wonderful having him share his life with us. My facial cheeks were sore from laughing and smiling so much. I was very sorry to learn that his vision has deteriorated, but he built that situation into his stories. What a wonderful man!!! As I did when I was young, I could sit and listen to him tell his life tales all night! Thanks, Bill. Hope you can make it back real soon.
My mom and I had a amazingly wonderful time! You are a treasure and your gift to make people laugh is priceless! I have never seen you in person and so happy we did, what an experience and my only wish is I could give you a big hug and say thank you for making me laugh all these years, love you!
