Comedian, actor, and impressionist Frank Caliendo's impeccable comedic timing and spot-on impressions have been the center of fan-favorite viral video clips, TV shows, radio appearances and live shows for more than 20 years. With an enormous collection of impressions at his command, Frank creates extraordinary comedic situations for our culture's most famous celebrities, sports figures and political leaders.
Touring non-stop year-round, Frank's live shows fill theaters with a high energy blend of observations, impressions, characters and stories for fans of all ages. Frank had a three-year residency at The Monte Carlo Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, performed at the prestigious Radio-Television Correspondents Dinner in Washington D.C., was featured in two Super Bowl Pre-Game shows and an MTV football pregame show with Jimmy Kimmel.
Frank was a regular on ESPN's Sunday NFL Countdown, and makes appearances on SportsCenter and other ESPN shows. He recently starred in the ad campaign for Monday Night Football with Peyton & Eli and his Super Bowl Richard Sherman 30 for 30 mocumentary, and "#IfTrumpWere" parodies have all gone viral. Prior to working with ESPN, Frank spent 10 years on Fox NFL Sunday Pregame.
Frank starred in his own TBS TV series, Frank TV, his own hour-long TBS special, Frank Caliendo: All Over The Place, and the half-hour special, Comedy Central Presents: Frank Caliendo. He was a cast member on the Fox TV series MADtv for five years, and he has been a guest over 20 times combined on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, The Tonight Show and The Late Show.
As an actor, he was seen in the film, The Comebacks, two episodes of the Disney Channel series, Liv and Maddie, the Bob Odenkirk-produced IFC series, Birthday Boys, the TBS series Sullivan and Son, and an episode of the Valerie Bertinelli and Betty White TV Land series, Hot In Cleveland. He has voiced characters in three episodes of the Chuck Lorre & Kathy Bates Netflix series, Disjointed, the animated Disney Channel series, Gravity Falls, and an episode of the Disney Channel animated series, Phineas and Ferb.
First he postpones the concert by 6 months which I understand things happen but then when the show does go on, it was sub par. It seemed like he totally forgot his show, tried unsuccessfully to adlib. It was by far the weakest show I've seen in quite some time. And to add salt, the show was only like an hour long! I'll never go to see Frank again! Save your money and go see someone else.
FRANK IS GOOD. HOWEVER, HE NEEDS NEW MATERIAL. THROWING UP THE SAME OLD STUFF YEAR AFTER YEAR AIN'T GONNA CUT IT....
1. Much of the content was NOT new. If you have seen Caliendo before, chances are you will be familiar with %80 or more of the content. Same Madden jokes, Same Bush and Clinton jokes, same Bunny foo foo...etc. I was expecting new material. For the people I brought who had not seen him before, it was enjoyable, for myself not so much (I expect new material when a comedian comes through town again) 2. Verizon Theater. The Facility map where the online tickets were purchased were VERY MISLEADING. When they first went on sale, I intentionally picked seats in the center front row of the second section. From the online map, you would be lead to believe the seats were half way back from the stage. Additionally I had been to the theater before when there were risors, so I was expecting unobstructed views of the stage with these seats. When we got there, the seats were all on the floor, they were junior high folder chairs that left everyone crowded, and the dividing section was about 3/4 of the way back. Point is, it was NOT what I had expected. All in all I was very disappointed as I felt mislead and shortchanged by the seating location.
Loved the show. He was very funny and quick. Went by too fast! His show is very clean and he spent time meeting fans in the lobby after the show. It was well worth it..
His good stuff is good....Pacino, Bush, Madden, Barkley...etc. And his bad stuff is bad. He did all his favorite bits and it was an entertaining show. Just don't expect the world, he is what he is.
Frank Caliendo is a master at impressions. I would definately see him again and would further recommend him to anyone. My wife and I laughed so much. However, the Verizon Wireless Theater was not clearly marked so we had a little trouble finding it. Also the seats were tightly packed but overall the venue was great. Frank stayed around for a meet and greet. Can't wait for some new material.
Don't bother going to see Frank if you've ever seen any of his material. It never changes and that's unfortunate. He seemed really bored to be in Houston too. Oh well, I still enjoyed his performance as I've never seen him live but I knew what was coming most of the night.
My husband, our 2 sons and I went to see Frank Caliendo in Houston. He was HILARIOUS!!! His impressions of Bush and Clinton are always right on. He did an excellent job with Jeff Goldblum even. The funniest part to me was that, at one point, he joked that he was out of material and he laid on the ground and did Kermit the frog. Then, Kermit peeped up and said "Oh my God, I can't believe you are still here!" He had us all rolling and after it was over, he stayed after and signed for every single person in line for autographs.
i laughed the whole time and had a great night out!! the only thing is he made comments and had the attitude that he had already been paid so if ran out of things to say or do it didn't matter. i've always thought he was hilarious, but i expected more respect from him for his audience. we ARE the reason he has a career you know. if know one went to his shows, he would be a nobody. at one point he laid on the floor and did a kermit the frog impression for 5 minutes!! it was funny, but when he looked up he said "i can't beleive ya'll are still here!!" Comical, but immature. something dane cook would pull!! haha his opening guy was funny too.
