Las Vegas Comedians: Derek Richards and Ron Coleman Come to Montana

The 1st Annual “Montana Comedy Festival” will take place in Deer Lodge from March 12th – 17th. And kicks off March 12th and 13th with the likes of Vegas comedians Ron Coleman and headliner Derek Richards, both who perform regularly on the Vegas strip and across the nation.

Ron Coleman, who began his entertainment career acting as a stuntman in over 30 movies and television shows, will open for Mr. Richards. Ron is a regular on the Las Vegas strip and has opened for such comedy greats as Rodney Dangerfield, Tim Allen, Ellen Degeneres, Joe Rogan, and George Lopez. Ron is a California native that brings a likeable sarcasm to the stage. He is like the fun uncle you wish you had but your parents would probably frown when you hang around him.

The show’s headliner Derek Richards also has an extensive comedy resume in and outside of Las Vegas. His hour special “The Irish Comedy Tour” can be seen on demand via Amazon Prime, DISH, Direct TV, iTunes, VUDU, Vimeo, Google Play, Microsoft XBOX, and YouTube. Derek’s act is fast, fresh, and at times, fanatical. He brings the funny with tales about his Irish-Catholic upbringing, divorce, the holidays, and his child-free existence. A veteran of the USO and Armed Forces Entertainment tours, Richards has performed at U.S. base camps in Iraq, Afghanistan, and 15 other countries.
