Comedian George Wallace has turned a three-month stint at the Flamingo into a year-long run, packing the house with laughing audiences six nights a week.

From the Flamingo site:

George Wallace, who has been selling out comedy clubs and concert venues all over the country, derives his comedy from the everyday and simply shares moments of life. He finds humor everywhere he turns--from media to relationships to dialogue cliches. At all costs, he avoids standard opening lines and is known to be an ace at reading an audience. Among other comics, Wallace is known as "the guy who can roll the room over if it's dead."

Wallace began his career in comedy as a writer for "The Redd Foxx Show" and made a huge splash on the stand up scene as one of 150 competitors on the cable television special "The Big Laugh Off." Wallace captured first prize, which included club gigs all over the country.
