Drew Carey brings his Improv All Stars to Las Vegas

By Melissa Arseniuk

Whose theatre is it, anyway? Former “Whose Line is it, Anyway?” funnyman Drew Carey is set to take over Terry Fator Theatre for a weekend in August.

Along with a cast of so-called “improv all-stars,” the “The Price is Right” host will take to Fator’s stage next month for two nights of improv-filled laughs. The actor-comedian-host is scheduled to give two 10 p.m. performances on Aug. 28 and 29.

Joining him at the Mirage will be Ryan Stiles, Kathy Kinney, Chip Esten, Jeff Davis, Sean Masterson, Julie Larson and Laura Hall.

The shows will begin with Carey’s stand-up routine, followed by an interactive, “unscripted, unrehearsed, no-holds-barred laugh fest,” according to a release from MGM Mirage.
