Three of Minnesota’s most beloved improv comedians are teaming up to bring laughter back to CDT! Stevie & the Gang features Stevie Ray, Brett Williams, and pianist Matt Dorland from Stevie Ray’s Comedy Cabaret at their home in the Chanhassen Dinner Theatres. Enjoy audience-interactive improv, stand-up comedy and music every Friday and Saturday at 8pm in the Fireside Theatre. Not only is the seating distance safer, so is the comedy – no profanity and no politics. With everything going on in the world today, you owe it to yourself to have a night of fun. CDT has your health in mind, so you can relax and enjoy Stevie & the Gang. The funniest things in life are three!

Capacity is limited to 25% to achieve required social distancing.  Dinner is served before the show in a separate dining room.  Mask use is required at all times in the theatre.

Stevie Ray

Stevie performed his first show at the age of nine and has been making people laugh ever since, touring the country as an improvisational and stand-up comedian. He has opened for such stars as Paula Poundstone, Marsha Warfield of Night Court, Rich Hall of Saturday Night Live, and “Weird Al” Yankovic.  A former bodyguard, one client was Pee Wee Herman (yes, really).

Brett Williams

The cast member most closely resembling Benicio Del Toro, Brett started training at Stevie Ray’s in October of 2000 and rose to troupe membership very quickly. His stage energy has been used to power small townships, and the Xcel Company is considering a franchise option. Brett is also the creator and star of the hit trivia game show, MatchWits with Brett Williams.

Matt Dorland

Matt started his musical journey at the ripe old age of six when he began plunking out tunes on an old piano in his parent’s basement.  He performs regularly with his jazz trio at coffeehouses, bars and breweries across the Twin Cities, as well as for weddings, parties and corporate events (in addition to teaching 30+ students out of his studio.)
