Too Marvelous for Words

This celebration of the Nat King Cole Trio is a fun and swingin' journey into the early days of Nat King Cole. Before "The Christmas Song" and "Mona Lisa," which he performed standing in front of the orchestra, Cole was recording and playing (from the piano bench) some of the tastiest and most influential music of the day, leaving an impact not only on an array of singers, but also on such pianists as Oscar Peterson and Ahmad Jamal.  Drawing on his experience as both an actor and singer/pianist, Peter Smith (the show's creator) effortlessly weaves in stories from this period in Nat King Cole's life as they relate to the song selections, creating an evening that leaves the audience tapping their feet and pondering the fascinating tidbits from Cole's life.

Catch a Rising Star Comedy:
Mike Marino

With a tongue like a razor and a heart of gold, Mike Marino is affectionately known to millions of his fans, worldwide, as New

Jersey's Bad Boy and is one of the most loved comedians of our time. Mike has performed in every major comedy club, theatre, casino and event center from New York to Los Angeles and around the world. Mike has also shared the stage with some of the biggest names in the business. Added to his great success in film, theatre, commercials and soaps, Mike Marino began touring the world performing and selling out at countless clubs, theatres and casinos. His stand-up material ranges from cutting edge observations of everyday life to his Italian family roots – which were recently spun into a T.V. pilot called "Re-Constructing Jersey." His comedic style has landed him guest appearances on The Tonight Show as a regular sketch player, The Martin Short Show, Canada's Comedy TV, The Boomer Show, Wild Pitch, and Hand Held Comedy Radio. A clip of Mike's appearance on Byron Allen's Comics Unleashed earned him over 7 million views (and counting), which has led to his current web series "Marino 2016" – an original comedy based on Mike's road to the White House and wise guy attempt to become the first Italian American President of the United States. In the Fall of 2008, Mike Marino was inducted into the New Jersey Comedy Hall of Fame and in 2015 he won the USO Bob Hope Comedy Award for his many performances for the military.
