JOSH BLUE – LOW TICKET ALERT!
JOSH BLUE – LOW TICKET ALERT!
With his signature “palsy punch,” Josh Blue’s self-deprecating humor is one-of-a-kind. After his win on NBC’s Last Comic Standing in 2006, Blue has risen through the ranks to become a well-established comedic headliner. He does over 200 shows a year, spreading laughter and breaking down stereotypes of people with disabilities. His stand-up is in a constant state of evolution and his sharp improvisational skills guarantee that no two shows are alike.
