SUMMARY:Marcello Hernández at Foxwoods
DESCRIPTION:Marcello Hernández at Foxwoods brings one of the fastest-rising young comedians in the country to the Premier Theater at Foxwoods Resort Casino for two performances on Saturday\, May 23. Best known for his breakout work on Saturday Night Live\, Marcello Hernández quickly became a fan favorite thanks to his sharp observational humor\, high-energy storytelling\, and effortless stage presence. Drawing heavily from his Cuban-Dominican background\, Miami upbringing\, dating experiences\, and family dynamics\, Hernández has developed a comedy style that feels conversational\, fast-moving\, and deeply plugged into younger audiences and internet culture without losing mainstream appeal. \nBefore joining Saturday Night Live\, Hernández built momentum through stand-up clips\, digital comedy content\, and appearances at major comedy festivals\, eventually earning recognition as one of the breakout voices of a new comedy generation. His performances often move rapidly between personal stories\, cultural observations\, crowd interaction\, and exaggerated impressions\, creating the feeling that audiences are watching someone think in real time. That unpredictability has translated especially well to live audiences\, where his sets tend to feel energetic and loosely controlled in a way that keeps crowds constantly reacting. \nThe performances take place inside the Premier Theater at Foxwoods Resort Casino\, one of the region’s largest entertainment venues for nationally touring comedians\, musicians\, and live productions. Marcello Hernández will perform two shows on Saturday\, May 23\, with performances scheduled for 6 p.m. and 9 p.m. Venue policies note that all bags are subject to search\, assigned seating must be honored\, and smoking or vaping is prohibited inside and surrounding the theater. Tickets for Marcello Hernández at Foxwoods can be purchased by clicking the event link below. \nRules and Suggestions:\n• All bags are subject to search upon entry\n• Guests must sit in their assigned purchased seats\n• Smoking and vaping are prohibited inside and surrounding the Premier Theater\n• Violations of venue policies may result in removal without refund\n• All ticket sales are final and non-refundable\n• Tickets can be purchased by clicking the event link below \nSEO Description:

SUMMARY:19th Nervous Breakdown (Rolling Stones Tribute) at the Charlestown Rathskeller
DESCRIPTION:19th Nervous Breakdown (Rolling Stones Tribute) at the Charlestown Rathskeller brings classic rock swagger and Rolling Stones energy to Charlestown Rathskeller Tavern on Saturday\, May 23\, from 8:00 to 11:00 PM. Set among the outdoor seating\, fire pits\, and wooded atmosphere of the historic Rathskeller property\, the night combines live rock music with one of Rhode Island’s most recognizable summer nightlife destinations. \nHeadlining the evening is 19th Nervous Breakdown\, a regional tribute act dedicated to recreating the sound\, attitude\, and stage energy of The Rolling Stones. The band’s performances pull from decades of Stones classics and deeper catalog favorites\, delivering the guitar riffs\, blues-rock grooves\, and larger-than-life swagger that helped define arena rock for generations. From danceable crowd favorites to rawer rock-and-roll cuts\, the show leans heavily into the feeling of a full classic rock concert rather than a simple cover set. \nThe Charlestown Rathskeller setting adds another layer to the experience\, encouraging guests to arrive early for food\, drinks\, and outdoor gathering before the music starts. Between the rustic atmosphere\, open-air layout\, and holiday weekend energy\, the venue naturally fits a night built around timeless rock songs and dancing under the trees. For longtime Rolling Stones fans\, casual classic rock listeners\, or anyone simply looking for a lively Memorial Day weekend night out\, 19th Nervous Breakdown delivers exactly the kind of soundtrack the Rathskeller was made for. \n

SUMMARY:Lenny Clarke
DESCRIPTION:There’s a certain kind of comic who doesn’t just walk on stage… he *takes it over*. That’s Lenny Clarke. A Boston original through and through\, he came up during the city’s wild comedy boom in the ’80s\, building a reputation on straight-shooting\, blue-collar humor and stories that feel like they were pulled right out of a barroom at last call. He’s loud\, sharp\, unpredictable… and completely in control the whole time. \nYou’ve probably seen him even if you don’t realize it. From Rescue Me to The John Larroquette Show and Are You There\, Chelsea?\, Clarke’s presence jumps off the screen the same way it does on stage. But stand-up is where he really lives. That’s where the stories stretch\, the punchlines hit harder\, and the crowd becomes part of the ride. \nWhen he grabs the mic\, you’re not getting a polished\, safe set… you’re getting the real thing. Big personality\, fast pace\, and that unmistakable Boston edge that doesn’t hold back. It’s the kind of show where you don’t quite know what’s coming next… just that you’ll be laughing when it hits. \nPlease Note \nFor mature audiences only. Located in the Casino of the Earth at Mohegan Sun. \nAll seating for live music is first-come\, first-served. For reservations of five or more\, email [info@comixmohegansun.com](mailto:info@comixmohegansun.com). \nMinors are welcome in the Roadhouse for dining until 10:00pm. The 10:00pm Comedy Club and 9:15pm Roadhouse shows are 21+. All earlier Comedy Club and Roadhouse shows are 18+.

SUMMARY:The Eagles Experience - a Tribute Band
DESCRIPTION:The Eagles Experience – a Tribute Band brings the harmony-driven sound of classic California rock to Courthouse Center for the Arts for two nights of familiar hits\, nostalgia\, and live music that feels built for a spring night out in southern Rhode Island. Paying tribute to Eagles during the group’s iconic 1970s era\, the band recreates the layered vocals\, country-rock guitars\, and laid-back atmosphere that turned songs like “Hotel California\,” “Take It Easy\,” “Lyin’ Eyes\,” and “Desperado” into enduring classics. For longtime fans especially\, these songs carry the kind of instant recognition that can transform an audience from quiet listeners into full-room singalongs within minutes. \nLocated along scenic Kingstown Road\, the Courthouse Center for the Arts has become one of Rhode Island’s most charming intimate performance venues\, hosting everything from tribute acts and theater productions to local concerts and community arts programming. The restored historic building gives performances a warm\, close-up feeling that larger arenas simply cannot match. Instead of giant video boards and stadium crowds\, audiences here get live music in a relaxed setting where every harmony and guitar solo feels personal. That atmosphere works especially well for an Eagles tribute show\, where the music itself is rooted in storytelling\, musicianship\, and mellow late-night energy. \nPart of what makes tribute nights like this so popular is the shared nostalgia they create across generations. Some audience members grew up with these songs on vinyl and FM radio\, while others know them from road trip playlists\, movie soundtracks\, and family gatherings. The Eagles Experience leans heavily into recreating the original feel of the band’s live performances\, from the instrumentation to the vocal arrangements. The concerts take place Friday\, May 22 and Saturday\, May 23 from 7:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. at Courthouse Center for the Arts. \nRules and Suggestions:\n• This event is open to all ages\n• Outside food and beverages are not permitted\n• A full bar is available onsite for adult guests\n• Free parking is available at the venue\n• Arriving early is recommended for easier seating and parking access\n• Fans of classic rock may want to expect a singalong atmosphere during major hits\n• Tickets can be purchased by clicking the event link below \n

SUMMARY:Becky Robinson: The Beasts In Me Tour
DESCRIPTION:Becky Robinson: The Beasts In Me Tour brings the wildly unpredictable comedian and viral character creator to Foxwoods Resort Casino for a night of stand-up\, characters\, and chaotic energy that has made her one of the fastest-rising comedy performers touring today. Originally from Portland and now based in Los Angeles\, Becky Robinson built a massive following online through outrageous character work\, sharp improvisation\, and her fan-favorite “Entitled Housewife” persona\, a country club chaos agent whose videos exploded across social media during the pandemic years. Her performances tend to blur the line between stand-up\, sketch comedy\, and full theatrical meltdown in the best possible way. \nRobinson’s comedy style thrives on unpredictability. One minute she’s delivering rapid-fire observational jokes\, the next she’s fully transformed into one of her larger-than-life characters with exaggerated confidence and zero self-awareness. That energy helped launch her from viral clips into sold-out theaters and major industry opportunities\, including voice work for Nickelodeon\, DreamWorks\, and Netflix. Fans may also recognize her from appearances on Wild ‘N Out\, The G Word with Adam Conover\, and her original comedy music release “Mama Needs a Claw\,” which became something of a cult anthem online. \nThe show takes place at Foxwoods Resort Casino\, one of the region’s largest entertainment destinations and a regular stop for nationally touring comedians\, musicians\, and live performers. Becky Robinson’s live sets have developed a reputation for feeling loose\, energetic\, and interactive\, with audiences often unsure what character or bit might appear next. The Beasts In Me Tour is restricted to guests 18 and older due to mature content and language. Tickets for Becky Robinson can be purchased by clicking the event link below. \nRules and Suggestions:\n• This show is restricted to guests ages 18 and older\n• Arriving early is recommended for parking\, security\, and seating\n• Mature language and adult comedy themes should be expected\n• Guests should check venue policies regarding phones\, bags\, and photography before arrival\n• Foxwoods offers dining and nightlife options for guests planning a full evening outing\n• Tickets can be purchased by clicking the event link below \n

SUMMARY:Charlie Puth - Whatever's Clever! World Tour with special guests Daniel Seavey & Ally Salort
DESCRIPTION:Charlie Puth is an American singer\, songwriter\, and producer known for his sharp ear\, clean pop sound\, and ability to turn simple ideas into massive hits. He first broke through in a big way with “See You Again\,” his collaboration with Wiz Khalifa for the film *Furious 7*. The song became a global phenomenon\, topping charts around the world and earning multiple Grammy nominations. Before that\, he had been quietly building an audience online\, posting covers and original songs that showed off both his voice and his production instincts. \nWhat sets Puth apart is how involved he is in every layer of his music. He writes\, produces\, and arranges most of his work\, often starting with a melody or even a single sound and building outward. Albums like *Nine Track Mind*\, *Voicenotes*\, and *Charlie* show that progression clearly—moving from polished pop into something more personal\, rhythm-driven\, and experimental. Songs like “Attention\,” “We Don’t Talk Anymore\,” and “Left and Right” highlight his knack for catchy hooks while still feeling tightly constructed and intentional. \nOver time\, he’s also become known for pulling back the curtain on how music gets made. Through social media\, he’s shared his creative process in real time\, breaking songs down to their smallest pieces and letting fans see how an idea becomes a finished track. It’s made him feel less like a distant pop star and more like someone you’re watching work in the room. That mix of technical skill\, accessibility\, and instinct for melody has kept him relevant as both an artist and a behind-the-scenes force in modern pop.

SUMMARY:Misquamicut Drive-In: APOLLO 13
DESCRIPTION:Misquamicut Drive-In: APOLLO 13 brings one of the greatest space survival films ever made to the giant outdoor screen at Misquamicut Drive-In for a summer night filled with suspense\, history\, and cinematic awe under the stars. Directed by Ron Howard and starring Tom Hanks\, APOLLO 13 tells the true story of NASA’s near-catastrophic 1970 moon mission and the desperate effort to bring three astronauts safely home after an onboard explosion crippled their spacecraft. The film’s realism\, emotional tension\, and unforgettable line\, “Houston\, we have a problem\,” helped turn it into one of the defining historical dramas of the 1990s. \nThe Misquamicut Drive-In has become one of Rhode Island’s most memorable seasonal destinations for outdoor movie nights\, combining nostalgia\, ocean air\, and the simple charm of watching films beneath the open sky. As darkness settles over the beachside lot\, visitors gather in lawn chairs\, pickup beds\, and parked cars facing the massive screen while the glow of the movie reflects across the crowd. Something is fitting about watching a film centered on space exploration while sitting under the night sky itself\, especially in a setting that feels both old-fashioned and quietly cinematic. \nThe drive-in experience adds another layer to the atmosphere. Guests tune their radios to 96.3 FM to hear the movie audio directly through their vehicles\, creating crisp sound throughout the lot\, especially on nights when the windows are rolled down and the ocean breeze moves through the cars. Speakers positioned near the front rows also project audio outward for guests sitting closer to the screen\, adding to the immersive feel of the evening. Between the stars overhead\, the giant screen glowing in the darkness\, and the mounting tension of the mission unfolding scene by scene\, APOLLO 13 feels uniquely suited for a summer drive-in experience. \nRules and Suggestions:\n• Tune vehicle radios to 96.3 FM for movie audio\n• Outdoor speakers near the screen add audio for front-row guests\n• Lawn chairs and blankets are encouraged for guests watching outside vehicles\n• Arriving early is recommended for easier parking and preferred viewing spots\n• Keep headlights and bright interior lights off during the film\n• Even warm beach days can turn cool after sunset\, so bringing extra layers is encouraged\n• Guests should review venue policies regarding food\, beverages\, and outside items before arriving \n

SUMMARY:Mystic Dead at the Charlestown Rathskeller
DESCRIPTION:Mystic Dead at the Charlestown Rathskeller brings extended jams\, improvisational rock\, and laid-back outdoor energy to Charlestown Rathskeller Tavern on Friday\, May 22 from 8:00 to 11:00 PM. Set beneath the trees and string lights of one of Rhode Island’s most beloved live music destinations\, the evening combines jam-band culture\, dancing\, and open-air nightlife into a classic start-to-summer shoreline gathering. \nHeadlining the night is Mystic Dead\, a southeastern Connecticut tribute act dedicated to recreating the improvisational spirit and musical atmosphere of Grateful Dead. Formed during recurring Dead nights in Mystic back in 2018\, the six-piece group has developed a strong regional following through performances that blend recognizable favorites with free-flowing jams that evolve depending on the crowd and the energy of the room. Rather than simply replaying songs note-for-note\, the band leans into spontaneity and the loose musical chemistry that made the Grateful Dead experience unique. \nThe Charlestown Rathskeller setting only adds to the atmosphere\, with outdoor seating\, fire pits\, lawn games\, food\, drinks\, and the kind of rustic environment that naturally fits a jam-band crowd. Guests are encouraged to arrive early for dinner and drinks before settling in for a long night of music under the trees.

SUMMARY:Lenny Clarke
DESCRIPTION:There’s a certain kind of comic who doesn’t just walk on stage… he *takes it over*. That’s Lenny Clarke. A Boston original through and through\, he came up during the city’s wild comedy boom in the ’80s\, building a reputation on straight-shooting\, blue-collar humor and stories that feel like they were pulled right out of a barroom at last call. He’s loud\, sharp\, unpredictable… and completely in control the whole time. \nYou’ve probably seen him even if you don’t realize it. From Rescue Me to The John Larroquette Show and Are You There\, Chelsea?\, Clarke’s presence jumps off the screen the same way it does on stage. But stand-up is where he really lives. That’s where the stories stretch\, the punchlines hit harder\, and the crowd becomes part of the ride. \nWhen he grabs the mic\, you’re not getting a polished\, safe set… you’re getting the real thing. Big personality\, fast pace\, and that unmistakable Boston edge that doesn’t hold back. It’s the kind of show where you don’t quite know what’s coming next… just that you’ll be laughing when it hits. \nPlease Note \nFor mature audiences only. Located in the Casino of the Earth at Mohegan Sun. \nAll seating for live music is first-come\, first-served. For reservations of five or more\, email [info@comixmohegansun.com](mailto:info@comixmohegansun.com). \nMinors are welcome in the Roadhouse for dining until 10:00pm.

SUMMARY:The Eagles Experience - a Tribute Band
DESCRIPTION:The Eagles Experience – a Tribute Band brings the harmony-driven sound of classic California rock to Courthouse Center for the Arts for two nights of familiar hits\, nostalgia\, and live music that feels built for a spring night out in southern Rhode Island. Paying tribute to Eagles during the group’s iconic 1970s era\, the band recreates the layered vocals\, country-rock guitars\, and laid-back atmosphere that turned songs like “Hotel California\,” “Take It Easy\,” “Lyin’ Eyes\,” and “Desperado” into enduring classics. For longtime fans especially\, these songs carry the kind of instant recognition that can transform an audience from quiet listeners into full-room singalongs within minutes. \nLocated along scenic Kingstown Road\, the Courthouse Center for the Arts has become one of Rhode Island’s most charming intimate performance venues\, hosting everything from tribute acts and theater productions to local concerts and community arts programming. The restored historic building gives performances a warm\, close-up feeling that larger arenas simply cannot match. Instead of giant video boards and stadium crowds\, audiences here get live music in a relaxed setting where every harmony and guitar solo feels personal. That atmosphere works especially well for an Eagles tribute show\, where the music itself is rooted in storytelling\, musicianship\, and mellow late-night energy. \nPart of what makes tribute nights like this so popular is the shared nostalgia they create across generations. Some audience members grew up with these songs on vinyl and FM radio\, while others know them from road trip playlists\, movie soundtracks\, and family gatherings. The Eagles Experience leans heavily into recreating the original feel of the band’s live performances\, from the instrumentation to the vocal arrangements. The concerts take place Friday\, May 22 and Saturday\, May 23 from 7:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. at Courthouse Center for the Arts. \nRules and Suggestions:\n• This event is open to all ages\n• Outside food and beverages are not permitted\n• A full bar is available onsite for adult guests\n• Free parking is available at the venue\n• Arriving early is recommended for easier seating and parking access\n• Fans of classic rock may want to expect a singalong atmosphere during major hits\n• Tickets can be purchased by clicking the event link below \n

SUMMARY:Tammy Pescatelli at the Mohegan Sun
DESCRIPTION:Tammy Pescatelli at the Mohegan Sun Comix Roadhouse brings the Emmy-nominated comedian’s fearless storytelling and razor-sharp sarcasm to Mohegan Sun for four performances from May 14 through 16. Known for comedy that pulls directly from marriage\, motherhood\, family chaos\, and everyday frustration\, Pescatelli has built a career on saying the things other people are usually too polite to admit out loud. Her stand-up lands somewhere between a brutally honest family therapy session and a hilarious late-night rant\, delivered with the timing and confidence of a veteran comic who knows exactly how to work a room. \nTammy Pescatelli at the Mohegan Sun Comix Roadhouse arrives after decades of success across television\, streaming\, and live touring. She first broke out nationally as a finalist on NBC’s “Last Comic Standing” before winning Comedy Central’s “Stand-Up Showdown” and releasing acclaimed specials\, including “Finding the Funny” and “The Way After School Special.” Her humor often draws from her upbringing in a large Italian-American family\, creating stories that feel loud\, personal\, and deeply relatable\, whether audiences grew up in the same kind of household or not. Fans may also recognize her from the WE TV series “A Stand-Up Mother” or her recent appearance in Netflix’s 2025 comedy-drama “Nonnas” alongside Vince Vaughn. \nComix Roadhouse gives Pescatelli the perfect setting for her style of comedy because the venue thrives on close-up interaction and energetic crowds. The room tends to feel more like a packed comedy club than a casino showroom\, which plays directly into her conversational\, fast-moving delivery. Expect stories about family dysfunction\, modern life\, relationships\, aging\, and all the little irritations people secretly love hearing turned into punchlines. For comedy fans looking for a weekend show with big laughs and zero filter\, these performances should deliver exactly that. \nShowtimes\n\nThursday\, May 14\, 2026 — 8:00 PM\nFriday\, May 15\, 2026 — 8:00 PM\nSaturday\, May 16\, 2026 — 6:00 PM\nSaturday\, May 16\, 2026 — 8:00 PM\n\n

SUMMARY:Blackstreet
DESCRIPTION:There’s a smooth\, late-night kind of energy that Blackstreet brings that still hits the same way it did in the ’90s. Built out of that New Jack Swing era and guided by producer and songwriter Teddy Riley\, the group carved out a sound that blends R&B\, hip-hop\, and soul into something effortlessly cool. Their breakout moments weren’t just hits… they were mood-setters. Songs like “No Diggity” didn’t just climb charts; they defined an entire vibe. \nWhat makes Blackstreet stick is how clean and confident everything feels. The vocals glide\, the beats knock just enough\, and there’s always that underlying groove pulling you in. Even as the lineup has shifted over the years\, the DNA hasn’t changed. It’s still about that mix of polished production and street-level edge\, where melody meets rhythm in a way that feels both nostalgic and right now. \nLive\, it leans into that feeling even more. You get the hits people came for\, but there’s also this easy\, laid-back connection with the crowd… like the whole room is in on it together. It’s the kind of show where you’re nodding along one minute and suddenly singing every word the next. If you’re looking for a night that slides between throwback R&B and pure feel-good energy\, Blackstreet delivers without forcing it.
