Amateur Night at the Apollo

Amateur Night at the Apollo: You Decide Who Stays & Who Gets the Hook

This year's lineup of fresh new faces is ready to sing, dance, joke and rap their hearts out for a chance at the big $10,000 prize and status of Super Top Dog. Be there, and you'll get to determine their fate by cheering your favorites and jeering the flops. If your boos and hisses get raucous, the Executioner -- aka master impressionist C.P. Lacey -- will come to the rescue, sweeping the offending performer off the stage. Your tour guide through the show will be Host Capone, "The Gangster of Comedy," who's a regular on "Shaquille O'Neal's All-Star Comedy Jam" and has been part of "Def Comedy Jam" and Comedy Central's "Russell Simmons Presents: The Ruckus". Get there before the show for a pre-party with video and music by DJ Jess.
