Jeff Dunham Tickets: Hysterical Animated Comedy
There are a number of comedians / ventriloquists out there, but none like Jeff Dunham. With the use of puppets that appear out of a suitcase at just the right time a touch of innocence, and just enough crude material – Jeff is quickly gaining the attention of millions. When he is on tour, the shows sell out quickly, leaving many without a chance to enjoy the pure hilarity of such a show. Through his live performances, TV appearances, and DVD sales, Dunham has just reached the two million sales marker.
Jeff was born in’68, in Dallas, Texas. Dunham is no longer alone, as he was when he began standup, as his wife and three children fully support him and his career.
He did not begin to hit stardom until the’80′s. This is when he began performing at comedy clubs and on popular television shows like Star Search, Comedy Central Presents, and The Late Show with David Letterman.
Each performance Jeff begins with slight comedy, and at the right moment, pulls one of his puppets, from his suitcase, for the real show. Some of his most infamous characters are Walter, Achmed the Dead Terrorist, Jose Jalapeno, and Sweet Daddy D.
Jeff has made each of his puppets himself, turning each one into independent animated comedy. One of Jeff’s oldest puppets, Walter, happens to be a favorite of many crowds. Like all of his other characters, Walter acts in such a way that you nearly forget he’s a puppet due to his independent nature and frightening disconnect from society. Walter, whom has been married for 48 years, is very open about his hostility towards his wife and the audience. Known for his mouth, Walter is constantly voicing his opinions, about society today.
Achmed the Dead Terrorist is yet another hit amongst many of Jeff’s fans. Achmed is the skeleton of a suicide bomber, who constantly screeches out “I kill you”. He loves to sing, maybe not just any song, but his favorite is “Jingle-Bombs”, which typically leaves audiences on the floor. Even with the number of adoring fans that Jeff has, this act has had him banned by the South African Advertising Standards Authority due to jokes made about Muslims and labeled as offensive.
He was at home when he purchased one of his latest costumes, for one of his most recent characters – Melvin the Superhero. This new character rang in, not only the fans, but the sales as well. Since Melvin’s first appearance, Dunham has now appeared in films such as “Arguing with Myself”, “Spark of Insanity”, and even of his own “Jeff Dunham’s Very Special Christmas”.
Jeff, along with his devious side, has continued along the path of making people laugh through the use of vile, animated characters. Every audiences sits, in anticipation, waiting to see who is in the suitcase. Regardless of who it is, you are still in for quite a treat. His approach to comedy is quickly making its way around; the more people hear of his performances, the higher the ticket sales! If you ever have the opportunity to see Jeff Dunham, whether live or on TV, take the chance. You will never experience a laugh quite like this one.
