    The Wayans Brothers, together at Foxwoods

    Three of the Wayans Brothers due at Foxwoods are, from left, Keenan Ivory, Marlon and Shawn.

    Quick: Can you name all of the Wayan Brothers? Let's see, there's Alec, Billy, the born-again dude -

    What's that?

    Oh, you're right. That IS is the largely dour Baldwins.

    Okay. The Wayans have a big and (not remotely dour) family, and amongst the siblings are Keenen, Damon, Marlon, and Shawn - all of whom will share the comedic stage Friday in the Grand Theater at Foxwoods. Whether through separate or collaborative stand-up, the incredible and groundbreaking "In Living Color" television show, or the "Scary Movie" spoof horror film franchise, the Wayans have been responsible for more worldwide laughter than it's probably possible to quantify.

    While it's not possible to know how they'll approach the Grand Theater show, expect skits, one-liners, anecdotes and general comic mayhem.
