Comedian and Broadway Star Dick Capri Dead at 93

Dick Capri — a longtime actor and comedian — has died … TMZ has learned.

Capri’s son, Jeff, tells TMZ … Dick was diagnosed with a bleeding enlarged aorta that was rendered inoperable because of his age.

Dick just kept living while knowing his time was coming to an end. He spent a nice Christmas with his son, his daughter-in-law and his life partner Wednesday … and, the crew FaceTimed family that couldn’t make it down to Florida for the holiday.

The family got food from Dick’s favorite restaurant … and, eventually, Dick went to bed and died in his sleep early on the morning of the 26th.

Jeff tells us his dad did it all … adding the world has lost one of the funniest and kindest people in show business — as well as a wonderful father. He adds … “The world is not as funny today as it was yesterday.”

Capri rose to prominence in the early 1970s … touring with Engelbert Humperdinck — playing venues like Radio City Music Hall and several major resorts in Las Vegas.

Other acts he was associated with include Tom Jones, Liza Minnelli and Frank Sinatra — some of the biggest stars of the ’60s and ’70s.

Capri made the jump to Broadway in 1991 … costarring in “Catskills on Broadway,” a comedy special with some other big acts of the time. The show played on Broadway for more than a year before touring nationally.

Capri appeared on national television multiple times throughout the years … and even performed for two presidents.

Dick was 93.
