Rip Taylor is no stranger to the Strip and has starred in many resorts including that of the Miss Reynolds Hotel and Casino.
Taylor was born as Charles Elmer Taylor and made his show business debut while still a student at George Washington University. He soon abandoned "Charles" in favor of "Rip".
Also most of us know Taylor as that crazy guy running around, he has a legitimate stage career. Taylor played a dramatic Fagan in "Oliver!" and appeared on Broadway with Ann Miller in "Sugar Babies". Taylor has carved an indelible name for himself as a master of madcap.
Taylor draws people to him by his famous crying on stage and bombards them with confetti. It takes a quick mind to keep up with Taylor since his madcap mania is only the facade for a brilliant comic genius with a gift for timing.
Taylor will take the stage nightly except Fridays as the special guest star in "The Great Radio City Spectacular," starring Radio City Rockettes. The mustachioed manic offers a non-stop stream of consciousness soliloquy that has left the audience for when he took the name - in stitches.
"It sounded like a guy who kept people in stitches." - Rip Taylor
