Holly Faris always had a gift for impersonation. It all
started with doing impressions of relatives and homeroom
teachers that were characters in their own right. As Holly
readily admits, "I used to get hit for it, now I get paid
for it." Holly has come a long way since then, appearing in
showrooms across the country, from Las Vegas to Atlantic
City. She performed extensively in the Caribbean, appearing
in a show there for two years and cutting two records as
Tina Turner in Papiamento, the native dialect. Her style and
success had locals dubbing her as the Tina Turner of
Aruba. Holly then moved onto Greece for three months after being cast in a revue with Ana Visi, one of the countries' top pop
stars. After returning from Europe, Holly pursued a career
in standup comedy, utilizing it as vehicle to showcase her
repertoire of impressions.
