Gerry Bednob, Harry Basil and John Crist to Perform at Laugh Factory in Tropicana Las Vegas Nov. 24-30
The Laugh Factory, located on the mezzanine level of the Tropicana Las Vegas, will present an outstanding combination of stand-up comedy by featuring two headliners and a featured comedian as host the week of Nov. 24-30. Headlining are Gerry Bednob and Harry Basil, with John Crist hosting the show (Pictured: Gerry Bednob).
Comedian/impressionist and Laugh Factory partner/producer Harry Basil celebrates his 30th year performing on the Las Vegas Strip
Bednob, who was born in Trinidad, India, and grew up in Toronto, Canada, attended the University of Toronto where he obtained a degree in Sociology. He uses sociology very cleverly in his various comedy routines. As an example, Gerry talks with a slight East Indian accent, and he’ll use minor errors in various accents, to show how it can lead to a miss understanding: “I was in the men’s room at an airport recently, and this gentleman walks in and says, ‘Hi seeyours (Senor)’ to me, and I responded, I see yours too.” Another example he uses: “I was sitting at a bar in this hotel, and a guy was talking nearby and I heard him say, ‘I’d give my left nut for a drink.’ I thought, ‘there goes a guy limited to two drinks.’”
Award-winning stand-up comedian John Crist has edgy yet clean comedy that makes him popular among fans of all ages
After honing his skill as a stand-up comedian in Los Angeles, and being cast in a few movies, he became a friend of producer, Judd Apatow, who cast him in the Fox television show “Undeclared.” Apatow followed up by casting him as Mooji in the 2005 hit film, “The 40-Year Old Virgin,” “Walk Hard,” and “Zack and Miri Make a Porno.”
