He’s a Catskills titan! Dick Capri is one of comedy’s true treasures. With a style firmly based in the Borsht Belt, Dick uses his Italian heritage and unique delivery to mix comedy and mime – setting him distinctly apart from the traditional stand-up comic. Since the early 1960’s, Dick has performed in nightclubs and resorts throughout the United States and Europe. He has been a guest on numerous television shows over the years including The Tonight Show, The Merv Griffin Show, Toast of The Town, The Mike Douglas Show and, most recently, on Comedy Central’s Friars Club Roast of Drew Carey. As Tom Jones’ and Engelbert Humperdink’s favorite comedy attraction, Dick performed on the same bill with the two stars for six years at major nightclubs and theaters throughout the U.S. and also worked with Engelbert at London’s Palladium, doing a BBC special, and at MGM’s Grand Hotel in Las Vegas. He was also one of the stars of the Broadway hit “Catskills on Broadway” along with Freddie Roman, Andrea Martin and Mal Z. Lawrence. Dick Capri is a legend!
