From Atlantic Cities ‘500 Club’ to Las Vegas, The King of Comedy Jerry Lewis and the straight talking smooth singing Dean Martin turned the world on its head when they teamed up in 1946.
Tom Stevens and Tony Lewis, potentially the world's greatest tribute to Martin & Lewis, recreate a time line of song and comedy from the greatest act of that time.
From the duo’s humble beginnings to their solo careers including Everybody loves Somebody, Volare, Amore and many more, Tom Stevens will have you believing you are watching Dean Martin in 1955.
Tony Lewis has won many awards over the past 20 years but his greatest claim, is his tribute to Jerry Lewis. An acclaimed stand-alone comedian, Tony Lewis is even better when he teams up with Tom Stevens.
Tony’s 'Typewriter’ act is said to be the best tribute to Jerry Lewis 'Typewriter' scene from 'Who’s Minding the store'.
Griffith Regional Theatre and Art Gallery manager Sarah Boon said Tom Stevens was a well renowned performer in Las Vegas for the past 25 years.
“His resemblance to Dean Martin is so uncanny that Dean Martin's own daughter Deana said of Tom's portrayal of her father at the Dean Martin Festival in his hometown of Steubenville, Ohio, ‘I've never seen anyone look and sound more like my daddy’,” Mrs Boon said.
Both Stevens and Lewis have recently appeared in Atlantic City, Arizona, Florida and Jersey in the USA!
Their recent tour included work on live television and radio in conjunction with performing in famous theatres and casino showrooms.
“Together they are undeniably a one of a kind show that will make you feel as if Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis are still performing together today. Not only will this show bring back memories to those who remember the Martin and Lewis era but will also entertain a whole new generation of fans who will grow to respect the talents of Tom Stevens and Tony Lewis as two of the world's best tribute artists,” Mrs Boon said.
