As recently announced, Making It Up has been extended for another year, which will keep the multi-talented Brady entertaining Las Vegas through August 2009.  Tickets are on sale now for all performances through October 2008.


"I couldn't be happier being in Las Vegas," says Brady.  "I am thrilled to be recognized by the community for doing what I love – bringing old school showbiz back, but with a new school twist."


Since he started performing Making It Up in April 2007, Brady has lived up to its title.  Not only does he create a different show each night with improv partner Jonathan Mangum, he is also constantly adding new elements to the line-up, making each show an original.  Working with his four-piece band, led by musical director Cat Gray, and a chorus of talented dancers and singers, he recently added new production numbers including a tribute to Sam Cooke.  Brady continues to delight audiences with his performances of songs made famous by showbiz luminaries, such as Sammy Davis, Jr. and James Brown.


Heralded as "pure genius," "hysterically funny" and "amazing," Brady's show is a guaranteed hit. 


Brady is well known for his hilarious improvised antics, unique musical talents and limitless impersonation skills as showcased on the hit show "Whose Line is it Anyway?" and the syndicated talk show "The Wayne Brady Show." Brady can also be seen as the quick-witted host of the returning hit game show "Don't Forget the Lyrics!" on FOX. 


Making It Up can be seen Thursday – Monday at 9:00 p.m. in The Venetian Showroom, with occasional Wednesday performances.
