Comedians Kevin Herrera and Anthony Rodia hit The Colosseum stage for a night of laughs July 18, while Nikki Glaser brings her Alive and Unwell Tour to Caesars Windsor on Oct. 4.

New York's Herrera is known for his comedic wit and his raw comedy inspired by his life experience­s.

His Only Raising Kings sketches on social media provide relatable comedy for couples and parents.

Rodia, a former finance manager at a luxury car dealership, left his day job to become a full-time standup comic. Rodia's comedy pulls from his real life and razor-sharp observatio­ns on marriage, parenthood and road rage.

During the COVID-19 quarantine, he made the most of a captive audience, delivering 86 weekly videos. Road Rage Wednesday became a fan favourite, with his Uncle Vinny and Zia Lucia characters transformi­ng him into a phenomenon.

Nikki Glaser brings her no-holdsbarre­d style of comedy, honed at clubs over the last two decades, to The Colosseum stage Oct. 4.

In March 2021, the host and executive producer of Lovers and Liars on the CW, launched The Nikki Glaser Podcast, providing a fun and brutally honest look into pop culture and her own personal life in weekly episodes.

Her second HBO comedy special, Someday You'll Die, airs May 11.

Glaser took her love of reality TV to the next level by starring in and producing the E! reality sitcom Welcome Home Nikki Glaser?

Uprooted from her Hollywood lifestyle, she returns to her hometown of St. Louis where she embarks on a hilarious and often uncomforta­ble journey of self-discovery.

Glaser has made multiple standup specials and late-night TV appearance­s in which she's joked about her most humiliatin­g moments as a woman in the modern world and her struggles with anorexia, depression and anxiety.

Showtime for both shows is 8 p.m. Tickets are on sale through caesarswin­dsor.com or ticketmast­er. ca or at the box office, Fridays and Saturdays from noon to 8 p.m. and on show days from noon to 10 p.m.

Guests must be 19 years of age or older to attend concerts and to enter the casino and all other outlets.
