New York City’s most desired cabbie, Ben Bailey, will give a few reasons to laugh this weekend at The Palm Beach Improv. Bailey, widely recognized as host of the successful Discovery Channel series Cash Cab, got an unlikely start as a stand-up comedian. His humorous antics in the green room of the Los Angeles Comedy Store caused him to be mistaken for a comic while he was working there answering phones. This won over the club’s talent coordinator and landed him his first gig. He then relocated to New York City to hone his craft. After 10 years and numerous television credits, he continues to tour the world and spread his hilarity. Bailey will be joined by local favorite Will Watkins as host and emcee tonight through Saturday.
