Empire Presents Comedian Dana Carvey for Major Loan Institution Event

When a leading home loans institution needed a headline comedian to act as the finalé for their "Platinum Producers Circle" conference, they called Empire Entertainment. As the final event was on a Saturday evening, Empire recommended and secured former 'Saturday Night Live' cast member, Dana Carvey. Dana performed a number of dead-on impressions including both former and current Presidents George Bush, John Kerry, Howard Dean, Ross Perot, The Croc Hunter, and Michael Jackson. He also brought some of his best-known characters from SNL to life, such as "The Church Lady" and Hanz (of "Hanz and Franz" fame). Dana also played guitar and piano with some absolutely hilarious bits, and his material about being a parent and raising children had the crowd in stitches.But most importantly, Dana performed a great deal of customized material specific to the client. He referenced their company name and their industry in a number of routines, and sang ad-libbed songs about the highest-ranking executive at the conference as well as about a VIP couple who was seated front and center. The audience's standing ovation and sustained applause after the 60-minute long performance was so tremendous, that Dana came back for an impromptu encore.

Empire Entertainment is a leading producer of customized headline comedy entertainment. Aside from Dana Carvey, we have produced other former SNL cast members Kevin Nealon performing customized "Weekend Update" and "Subliminal Man" segments for numerous clients, and recently had Darrell Hammond, perform a set of customized comedy in full makeup as former President Bill Clinton.
