By Staff Report-

What do you get when you cross Morgan Freeman, Al Pacino, President George W. Bush and John Madden?
“You get the hilarious and nationally renowned impressionist and comedian Frank Caliendo performing at Wagon Wheel Center for the Arts,” according to a press release from the Wagon Wheel.
He performs May 9 for two shows, at 7 and 9 p.m. Tickets go on sale Monday at 10 a.m.
Caliendo is well known for his impressions of famous actors, politicians, broadcasters and talk show hosts. On stage, Caliendo’s high energy act is a blend of observations, impressions, characters and anecdotal stories that start at a frenetic pace and never let up, the release states.
Though Caliendo is best known for his variety of sports-related impressions, his live shows are appealing for everyone in the audience (including families) by continually including a little bit of every major genre – sports, political figures and celebrities, the release states. Described by the Hollywood Reporter as "a combination of Robin Williams and Jim Carrey," Caliendo is “one comedian that should not be missed,” the release also states.
An 11-year veteran of television sketch comedy as a cast member on “MADTV” and starring in his own series “Frank TV,” Caliendo has been a fixture on television for the last decade, including contributions to ESPN's “Sunday NFL Countdown.” He has comedy specials that run regularly on TBS and Comedy Central and he is a staple on the talk show circuit performing on such shows as “The View,” “The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson,” “The Tonight Show” and “Late Show with David Letterman.”
Tickets range from $55-$65. For more information or to order tickets, visit www.wagonwheeltheatre.org or call the box office at 574-267-8041.[[In-content Ad]]
