Comedy Pet Theatre

Presented by: Count Basie Theatre

Friday, May 20, 2011, 7:30 PM

Returning for the first time since their sold out 2006 show, the World Famous Popovich Comedy Pet Theater is a family show featuring the comedy of Gregory Popovich, the international award winning star of the Moscow Circus and a World Champion Juggler, with the extraordinary talents of a cast of trained animals, including over a dozen cats and almost a dozen dogs, all rescued from shelters. Let these special creatures and their wonderful human friend treat you to a unique show that lets you know that pets are celebrities, too. Amazing juggling and balancing acts, animals jumping through hoops, pushing each other in carriages, and even a cat riding on a dog's back will delight adults and kids of all ages! Voted Best New Family Show when it debuted at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas, Comedy Pet Theater has been seen on the Tonight Show, Letterman, America's Got Talent and on tour in more than 20 countries.

Tickets: $24.50, $19.50
(Discounts available for groups of 12 or more. Call the box office at 732-842-9000 to purchase group rate tickets)
