40 Is
Not The New 20


Riviera
Comedy Club


Monday
through Saturday (dark Sunday)


10
p.m.


Tickets:
$40 plus tax and applicable fees.


Starring 25-year comedy veteran Matt Kazam in a hysterically funny, 70 minute
one-man stand-up comedy production, 40 Is Not The New 20 explores how much the
world has changed in the past 40 plus years. If you remember the boom box, “Pac
Man,” the Rubik’s Cube and when there were only three stations on television,
this show is for you. It puts the notion that 40 is the new 20 on trial and
breaks down the concept into categories such as technology, the media, politics,
relationships, our priorities and even how our bodies have changed over the
years.  Everyday topics like marriage,
parenting, work, commuting, bills and exercise, just to name a few, will be
compared and contrasted though the eyes of a 40 year old.





Matt
Kazam has performed in many of America’s top comedy clubs, casinos and
theaters. With more than 6,000 stand-up performances in 45 states under his
belt, Kazam has the ability to work any crowd in any venue. A New York native,
Kazam began performing shows for his family and friends at the age of three,
but it wasn’t until graduating college that he took the plunge as a full-time
comedian. He’s made several television appearances, including NBC’s “Last Comic
Standing,” FOX’s “Big Red Couch” and “Comedy Central’s “Stand-up Stand-up,”
among others. He’s opened for such notable acts as Chris Rock, Pauly Shore,
Kevin James, Robin Williams, DL Hughley and Drew Carey.

ILLUSIONS Starring Jan Rouven features some of the most dangerous and thrilling
acts and gives the audience a front-row seat into the imagination of a master
illusionist. Recipient of the 2014 Merlin Award, proclaiming him the
“Illusionist of the Year,” ILLUSIONS Starring Jan Rouven brings heart-thumping
music and five dancers to help Rouven cross many boundaries. Magic, mystery and
imagination will transport the audience on an unforgettable journey into his
world of Illusions. The seamless ride will include acts such as the “Hand
Stab,” where a volunteer from the audience will play Russian roulette with a
sharp knife; the “Water Tank” where the thrill level rises even more when the
illusionist nearly drowns cuffed and chained under water and many more you just
have to see to believe. The lure of danger and the penchant to create
highly-risky acts with a debonair charm and a handsome smile will surely be a
crowd pleaser.
