Legendary Las Vegas Show Producer Interviews Friends on WCOBM

LAS VEGAS - July 25, 2015 - PRLog -- Entertainment icon Johnny Stuart is hosting his first television show. Johnny Stuart and Friends airs every Thursday at 3 pm at the World Center of Broadcast Media, WCOBM.COM. The show features some of Las Vegas’ most recognizable tribute artists, and many of Stuart’s protégé’s and friends.

“Gene Woods and Michelle “Roxy” Davis asked me to become a host at WCOBM and I am thrilled to contribute to their lineup of shows,” Stuart said. “I’m just starting to learn about Internet television and I love what they are doing with this network. I know a lot of performers who need a push and my show is a platform for them to get exposure.”

Stuart has been in the entertainment industry for more than 60 years. As a 5 year old he toured and played the banjo for crooner Burl Ives. He was a member of the Vienna Boys Choir at age 9 and joined the popular band The Beach Boys as a teenager. Throughout his career in music, Stuart has sung tenor in more than 500 musicals.

As the entertainment director of Knott’s Berry Farm and Disneyland in Southern California, Stuart hosted and sang in live shows and collaborated with numerous notable celebrities including actress Goldie Hawn and comedian Steve Martin.

Stuart is widely regarded as the “father of impersonation shows.” He created Legends in Concert in 1983 as a tribute to famous entertainers and eventually produced 19 Legend shows around the world. Legends in Concert is currently the longest running show on the Las Vegas Strip and has earned entertainment industry awards for “Show of the Year,” “Entertainers of the Year,” and the prestigious “Show of Shows” awarded by the International Press Association. Stuart sold Legends in Concert ten years ago.

Stuart is currently the executive producer of Island Heat, a Polynesian themed dinner show that is being presented at Kahunaville in Treasure Island Hotel and Casino. He is also planning to open two Cuban-themed shows in the US in August.
