Featuring: The Bob Hope Road Show with Chuck Carson Announcer.
Lynn was great as Bob Hope. We had a good time, he treated us right and we treated him right. Great Show!
I have had the pleasure of producing and directing three shows with Lynn. Show # 1 is "ON THE AIR" - A tribute to Bob Hope and Radio Stars of the 1940's in which Lynn performs as Bob Hope, Red Skelton, Jack Benny and Jimmy Durante, Show # 2 Is "Bob & Bing's Road Show, in which He also performs the aforementioned legends, and Show # 3,
"Heavenly Laughter - Benny fiddles while George Burns" where he portrays Jack Benny, LYNN ROBERTS SHINES IN ALL THREE PRODUCTIONS! He is one of the easiest actor/impressionist to work with and ALWAYS delivers a superb performance.
Response from Lynn Win Roberts:
Thank you for the review, It is always a pleasure to work with you on your productions.

Words cannot describe what was felt in my heart, but also the audience, as I had seen their faces when they left at the end of the show. But all I have here are words to describe what I personally felt. If someone were to come to me and ask if there was a way to have a stage show that would bring back the best of the best and enthrall an audience with the same talent, appearance, energy, and embodiment of the greats of all time like Bob Hope, Jack Benny, and many more, I of course would say I wish it can be done. I really miss Bob Hope and Jack and the rest. I would love to go out and see them on stage live. But we know that is only a dream and can't be done. But recently I found out I was wrong. Totally wrong! And was so happy to be wrong. As I sat in the theater I was transformed to another place. Once again, words cannot describe. One would have to experience. But YES.... I was in the same room as Bob Hope, Jack Benny and all of my faves. A dream come true. God bless Lynn Roberts and all others that make this magical time happen for me and anyone who has ever seen it. Please don't miss it if you hear about it. Please don't. The word SPECIAL would be an understatement. No question.
Response from Lynn Win Roberts:
Thank you for your kind words, and Thanks for the memory

I was amazed at how professional and funny Lynn was. I noticed that every other person in the room was laughing uproariously and having a great time. It was a fantastic experience for me and all who attended the show. It was like Bob Hope came back from the hereafter to join us for one more special show.
Thank you! Jim Bennett
Lynn Roberts is the consumate professional tribute artist. I had the pleasure of working with Lynn and seeing the way an audience showed its appreciation during and after the performance. Lynn brings each of his characters to life to the point that audiences forget that they are not viewing the person Lynn personifies. Anyone looking for a great show need look no further because they will get it from Lynn Roberts.
I have hired Lynn "Win" Roberts on several occasions. He is extremely talented and a joy to work with. I will be hiring him again in the future and highly recommend him.
Just saw this show in Clovis Ca. What a fantastic, step back in time. I so enjoyed the characters of Lynn Roberts. He is a great impersonator and actor. The Radio announcer did a wonderful job and had a great radio voice. If this show comes to your town and you remember the good ol days, then go and enjoy.
My wife and I attended his show in North Platte Nebraska Saturday night and it was well worth the trip from Omaha.
He is a wonderful performer and the crowd loved him. I hope other people will consider booking him. They won't regret it.
Lynn Roberts is the total talent package. He is above all a superb impressionist. Our production, The Bob Hope Road Show is formatted as a 1940's NBC radio broadcast, starring Bob Hope with guest stars, Jack Benny, Red Skelton and Jimmy Durante. An on-stage staff announcer, Chuck Carson, reads live commercial copy of the period, presents recorded jingles of the era and interacts with Bob and his legendary radio star guests. Lynn does
such a great job with each impression that after the show audience members come up to He or Chuck and want to meet the other actors in the show. That's a real tribute to Lynn's talents.
Response from Lynn Win Roberts:
Thanks for the review and it has been a real treat working with your production of the Bob Hope Road Show..I am looking forward to our future bookings coming up.

This guy's got talent!! We have been fortunate to have Lynn on several school assembly tours for Dakota Assemblies, delighting and inspiring students across the Upper Midwest! We all want to hire someone we can count on and Lynn is that man! He navigated through sleet and snow, without complaint, to hundreds of schools, arriving on time and always coming through with a fantastic performance! I recommend Lynn Winn Roberts without hesitation! He's worth 5 stars in my book!
Lynn is the guy to go to for a Bob Hope tribute.
We've hired/worked with Lynn four times.
He does much more than look, act, or gesture like Bob Hope.
Lynn can sing, play instruments, he has comedic timing, and he's a real musician, so he understands the nuances of the entertainment business.
Most of all, he gets the laughs.
And don't forget, he does loads of other impersonations too.
Feel free to contact me, Nick, at www.grandavenuebigband.com
Response from Lynn Win Roberts:
Thanks you Nick. It is such a kick to work with your big band backing me. I look forward to doing it again soon.

We love having Lynn perform at our Dinner Theatre year after year. (I believe he has performed here for the last 15 years!) His professionalism and courtesy is the best! He has always been a favorite at the White Pines!
Response from Lynn Win Roberts:
Thank you Beth, It has been a week I look forward to each year at the White Pines In. You always have sold out crowds for me and I am looking forward to May of 2011 for my next appearance with you.

Lynn Win Roberts is amazing! He entertained 150 seniors from several of our RV Parks in Yuma, Arizona, at a first come first served basis, since we only had 130 seats available, with some standing along the sides of our college campus patio. Swinging and swaying to his one-man-band, and reminiscing of times past, his impersonations of Bob Hope, Red Skelton, Jack Benny, Jimmy Durante, and W. C. Fields brought tears of joy to our Winter Visitor Students' eyes. Mr. Roberts is personable, gracious, and thoroughly entertaining. I highly recommend him for any event where fun, memories, and quality entertainment is required.
I was asked to provide a Bob Hope entertainer for a Super Bowl party, and without hesitation I recommended Lynn Roberts. Lynn is in the very top echelon of impersonators in the world, and he got that way not just by being supremely talented and jaw-droppingly exact, but by being personable, easy to work with, and an all-around good guy. I think, if they ever cloned Bob Hope and tried to get him work, I'd still use Lynn. Yeah, he's THAT good!

We have booked the Lynn "Win" Roberts Show more than once and we had a packed house
on each occasion. People are asking : When is He coming back?" Lynn offers the best One
Man Show that we have been associated with. Whether he is playing two saxes at the same time,
playing a Clarinet and Sax to sound like a Bagpipe , Playing two trumpets at the same time, or
playing One Song on the Flute while Humnming another song at the same time, there is no doubt -
Lynn is a very Great Musician!
Being a Great musician is just the Start of trying to describe Lynn " Win" Roberts. If you want to go back
in time to the Old Radio days ,Lynn is the one to book. His impersonations of the Great ones: Bob Hope,
Jack Benny, W.C. Fields, etc. are done with such expertise that He not only Sounds like these great stars...
He also Looks like them.
In addition to being a very Talented and Professional person On Stage,
Lynn is great to work with Back Stage as well. He worked very hard for us to make sure our events were
well recieved.
I would Highly Recommend booking Lynn if you are Wanting the Best! We are looking forward to
using him again the the future.

What happens when you take Bob Hope back to a 1940's NBC radio broadcast complete with an on-stage staff announcer reading live commercial copy of the period, presenting commercial jingles of the era and interacting with Bob and his legendary radio star guests: Jack Benny, Jimmy Durante, W.C. Fields, Benny Goodman, Crazy Guggenheim and Red Skelton. You have a SMASH HIT! Lynn Roberts is superb in portraying all of the greats, including Hope. His talent as a musician is evident as he becomes Benny Goodman.
The Bob Hope Road Show offers Lynn the opportunity to shine!

The technical needs for my show are stage lighting, sound, cordless mic on stand. If I am flying in to perform I need a sound tech. who can supply a CD player and control the sound as per my script. If I am coming by car I bring my own CD equipment to plug into the existing Sound system. Further rider information can be given once the booking is secured and the venue needs established.

Performance set list depends on what is needed from me. What impersonations I will be doing or If I am playing, what type of audience do we have.
Of course I have been a fan of Red Skelton, Jack Benny, Bob Hope, Jimmy Durante and all of the great classic comedians. I have copied then for years but have finally matured to pull of a very authentic tribute to them.
The musical part of my performance has been influenced by the big bands of the 40's 50's. I lead my own big band which is called, "The Swinging Saxes"
Sound,lighting,with stage monitors,CD player and tech. or live band.
