The theatre was rechristened the Count Basie Theatre in 1984, in honor of jazz pianist, composer and band leader William "Count" Basie (1904-1984). Even though jazz historians most commonly associate Count Basie with Kansas City, where he formed his first band, Basie was in fact a Red Bank native, born in his parent's house on Mechanic Street on August 21, 1904.

The son of a former nun and priest, Stephen Lynch is a musician trapped in a comedian’s body. Armed with a guitar and a unique sense of humor, he moved to New York in 1996, became a regular on the Opie & Anthony radio show, turned heads with three top-rated Comedy Central Specials, and conquered Broadway in The Wedding Singer, earning Drama League, Drama Desk and Tony Award nominations for his title role performance. Dr. Demento called his debut CD, A Little Bit Special (2000), “The comedy-music debut of the year.” In 2005 iTunes named it and his second release, Superhero (2002) two of the 100 best-selling indie albums in iTunes history. His third CD was The Craig Machine (2005), and all three have sold a half-million copies. His DVD Live at the El Rey (2004) was certified Gold. He is almost a regular on "Last Call with Carson Daly", and his latest release is 3 Balloons (2009).
