The Amazing Platters-POSTPONED May 31, 2008

The OC Pavilion has announced the upcoming Amazing Platters performance, scheduled for May 31, has been postponed. Customers who purchased tickets for The Amazing Platters can exchange tickets for another scheduled performance at the OC Pavilion or receive credit for their tickets by contacting the OC Pavilion box office Monday through Friday between 9AM and 5PM.

The evening’s performance will be replaced by comedy group, Totally Laughable. Totally Laughable is produced by comedian Wes Martens, who put together a lineup of comedians who give the show a taste of adult humor without being raunchy or using certain four letter words.

Totally Laughable will feature comedian John DiCrosta. In his stage appearances DiCrosta is anything but boring. Dozens of voices, off beat impressions, topical humor, sight gags, a few props, and sometimes even ventriloquism are among the tricks this comedian has up his sleeve. His sharp wit and knack for playfully causing trouble with practical jokes, has helped to spread his name across the United States and Canada.

Nick Zaino from the Buffalo News says, “John DiCrosta unpacked his voice box on an unsuspecting crowd Thursday night, parading character after character like some sort of human clown car. One minute, he was a waiter in an Asian/Thai restaurant, the next; he was Dr. Ruth on a wild night.”

“In his impressive repertoire of characters were an "Everything for a Dollar'' manager, border guards, sweet southern folk, a rabid two year old, a crusty airline captain, and a wife turned fire-breathing monster. Each character came equipped with there own posture, expressions, and physicality, completing the picture,” said Zaino.

John DiCrosta has lived in Los Angeles the last 6 years and is becoming one of the more popular Audience Warm-up comics in Hollywood. He has kept the crowds in hysterics and great spirits on such shows as Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher, Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn, Americas Funniest Home Videos, American Idol, and many situation comedies as well. DiCrosta is also quickly becoming one of the most sought after voice over actors, providing his vocal talents for dozens of video games and various animated series on Nickelodeon.

Doors open at 5 PM to the award-winning Ambrosia Restaurant. Dinner reservations for Ambrosia are recommended as the restaurant tends to sell out on show nights. Doors to the theater and main lobby open at 6 PM with cocktails and appetizers available for purchase. Guests are invited after the show for an after party featuring live jazz in The Vault VIP Lounge.
