Impressionist, actor and comedian Dana Carvey brings the laughs to The Orleans Showroom, February 3 and 4, each evening at 8 p.m.

Carvey rose to national prominence during a six-year run as a cast member of NBC’s “Saturday Night Live,” where he created memorable characters “Church Lady,” “Garth” and “Hans” and spot-on impersonations of President George H.W. Bush, Johnny Carson, Ross Perot and Regis Philbin. Carvey’s work on “SNL” garnered him six Emmy Award nominations, including a win in 1993 for “Outstanding Individual Performance in a Variety or Music Program.” He also received multiple American Comedy Awards.

In addition to “SNL,” Carvey appeared on several other television programs – in guest and starring roles – including “One of the Boys,” “Blue Thunder,” “The Larry Sanders Show,” “Just Shoot Me,” “The Fairly Odd Parents,” and his self-titled 1996 series, “The Dana Carvey Show,” which also featured fellow comedians Steve Carell, Stephen Colbert and Robert Smigel.

On the big screen, Carvey appeared in supporting roles in “This Is Spinal Tap,” “Racing with the Moon” and “Tough Guys.” He starred in films “Opportunity Knocks,” “Wayne’s World,” “Wayne’s World 2,” “Clean Slate,” “The Road to Wellville” and “Master of Disguise.” Most recently, he had a cameo appearance in “Jack and Jill.”

Showtime each evening is 8 p.m. Tickets are available starting from $54.95, plus tax and convenience fees, and can be purchased at any Coast Casinos Box Office, by calling 702.365.7075, or visiting www.orleanscasino.com.
