There’s many sides to the brilliant comedy of Jeff Dunham – you might even say there are several voices running around in his head! Not merely a stand-up comedian, Dunham is a talented ventriloquist with a hilarious troupe of wacky and hilarious puppets backing him up on stage. And now, you can see Dunham, his crew, and their hysterical banter at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace during a limited run on Friday, July 3, and Saturday, July 4. The talented Dunham has performed stand-up comedy on numerous shows, including Comedy Central Presents in 2003. He released his first DVD, Arguing with Myself, in 2006 to rave reviews. In it, Dunham opens the show with a monologue and is then joined on stage by his usual cast of puppets. He also starred in the comedy special Jeff Dunham: Spark of Insanity in 2007 and has since filmed Jeff Dunham's Very Special Christmas Special, which drew 6.6 million viewers on its premiere broadcast to become Comedy Channel’s most-watched program ever. With his hilarious specials and DVDs, his successful country-wide comedy tour, and his numerous appearances on Late Night with David Letterman and The Tonight Show, Dunham has quickly become one of the most popular and talked-about comedians in the nation. A video clip of his “Achmed the Dead Terrorist” bit has become the one of the top five most watched videos on YouTube, and other popular clips by Dunham have garnered the comedian over 360 million views in total. People everywhere love his cutting-edge comedy, in which the puppets say everything that people – let alone puppets – are not normally supposed to say. Dunham’s regular cast of characters includes Peanut, the frenzied purple woozle who hails from an island in Micronesia and is a self-described “comic genius”; Walter, a cranky and sarcastic old retiree who loves to call out people’s stupidity; Jose Jalapeño, a talking Jalapeño on a stick; Bubba J, a NASCAR loving, beer-swilling redneck; and Achmed the dead terrorist, who vows to kill the audience if they laugh at him – which of course, they do! Taking his cues from the humor in everyday life, Dunham endows his suitcase full of sidekicks with loveable and hilarious personalities. As they rant, quip, and interact with the audience, you’ll forget that they’re puppets! And days later, you’ll find yourself still reciting their hilarious one-liners. With Jeff Dunham, expect to enjoy a thoroughly funny and entertaining show that will convert you into a Dunham fan for life. |
