CL RECOMMENDS
CL Critic Kevin C. Madigan Recommends: The popular ventriloquist returns to Atlanta and will bring with him a new millennial, text-loving puppet named Url along with longtime acolytes Achmed the Dead Terrorist, Bubba J, José Jalapeño, Walter and Peanut. After working at comedy clubs for a couple of decades, Jeff Dunham graduated to theaters and ultimately arenas, performing live to at least 7,250,000 people with 1,390 performances from June 2007 through May 2022, earning the title of Billboard’s Top Comedy Tour for three years in a row. He’s racked up an estimated$15 million in earnings while becoming a Comedy Central and YouTube star who belittles terrorists, ridicules our obsession with mobile devices and the silly things we spend money on. Dunham has a thing or two to say about cancel culture as well. As a way of spreading the wealth, Dunham and his wife Audrey created the Jeff Dunham Family Fund which provides some proceeds from every ticket sold to charitable organizations. — KCM
