Stars Are Out Tonight series
 by The Staff on July 12, 2012Â
If there’s a writer for the stars more famous than Bruce Vilanch, we haven’t heard of him. Bette Midler, Robin Williams, Cher, Whoopi Goldberg, Billy Crystal . . . and most hosts on more Oscar telecasts than we have time to list. He also wrote the legendaryStar Wars Holiday Special.
This week, Vilanch is bringing his stand-up act (which he insists is “not an actâ€) to the Mansion of Saratoga Springs, as the first performer in the Stars Are Out Tonight series.
As one Denver-based critic descibed his act, “nothing stings or feels mean. His humor is all about being an insider and sharing anecdotes about the foibles of working in show business.â€
Bruce Vilanch will perform July 18 (Wednesday) and July 19 at 8 PM as part of the Stars Are Out Tonight series at the Mansion of Saratoga Springs (801 Route 29, Rock City Falls). For more info, call 885-1607 or visit themansionsaratoga.com.
