Mohegan Sun will host comedy nights in The Cabaret Theatre presented by Treehouse Comedy Productions
Beginning Saturday, February 13th,  The Cabaret Theatre will begin hosting a comedy night every Saturday evening presented by Treehouse Comedy Productions. Comedy nights will begin at 9:00pm with three-act shows for twenty-one plus audiences unless accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.  This comedy series will be presented and staged through a partnership between Mohegan Sun and the well-known, Connecticut-based Treehouse Comedy Productions.
Opening night of the comedy series will bring celebrity comic Kevin Meaney to The Cabaret Theatre stage.  He is one of the most popular stand-up comics in the business with more than twenty-five years of experience. His TV and movie credits include Saturday Night Live, The Oprah Winfrey Show, Late Night with Conan O’Brien and the film, Big.  Meaney also starred in the hit Broadway musical Hairspray and most recently taped an upcoming episode on the award-winning TV show, 30 Rock.
Treehouse Comedy Productions was born out of the Treehouse Comedy Club, Connecticut’s first and original full-time comedy showcase that began in Westport in 1983.  The original club featured then up-and-comers Rosie O’Donnell, Denis Leary and Jon Stewart.  With the opening of various satellite venues throughout the state, Treehouse Comedy Productions hosted and helped launch the careers of such noteworthy comics such as Jim Gaffigan and Lisa Lampanelli.  Treehouse Comedy Productions have staged more than 10,000 shows in the last twenty-five years, presenting the very best in live stand-up comedy in Connecticut.
