Josh Blue

Comedy Works South at the Landmark

July 3

Perhaps best known as the comedian who puts the cerebral in Cerebral Palsy, Josh Blue centers much of his self-deprecating act around his disability. He exploded onto the national comedy scene by capturing the attention and endearment of the country as the winner of NBC's Last Comic Standing. Josh Starred in Comedy Central Presents: Josh Blue, which received rave reviews from fans and critics alike. Most recently, Josh debuted a one-hour Showtime special, Sticky Change, currently available on Netflix.


Possessed with an undeniable likability and comedic timing that belies his youthfulness; Josh continues to break down stereotypes of people with disabilities one laugh at a time. His stand-up routine is in a constant state of evolution and his off-the-cuff improvisational skills guarantee that no two shows are exactly alike.

Josh has appeared as a regular guest star on Comedy Central's Mind of Mencia and his story has been featured on news networks nationwide. He was the first comedian to perform stand-up on The Ellen Degeneres Show and was named "Best Winning Reality Show Guest" for his appearance on Live with Regis and Kelly. He became the first comic to debut a stand-up special on the big screen when 7 More Days in the Tank was shown in theatres across the country. Blue also appeared in the sports based comedy 108 Stitches. Josh is a repeat guest on such nationally syndicated radio programs as NPR's Talk of the Nation and The Mancow Show and has been featured in numerous print publications including People Magazine and The New York Times.

Brad Williams

Comedy Works South at the Landmark

June 29

Brad Williams has become one of the funniest, most in demand comedians working today.

Brad has appeared on numerous television shows including Legit, Deadbeat, Dave Attell's Comedy Underground, Sam and Cat, Live at Gotham, The Tonight Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, Mind Of Mencia and Pitboss. His one-hour comedy special, Fun Size, was the highest rated comedy special on Showtime in the year 2015. A year later, he followed it up with a second special called Daddy Issues. After the release of his second special, the New York Times said, "no one is doing it more hilariously than Brad Williams." Brad can now be seen in the Netflix original movie, Mascots.

In addition to stand-up, Brad has become a dynamic on-air personality. His podcast, About Last Night, is a mainstay on the iTunes Charts. He also makes regular appearances on KROQ's Kevin and Bean Show in Los Angeles as well as The Adam Carolla Show.

Brad's show is high energy. Robin Williams called him "Prozac with a head." Brad's ability to make humorous observations on disability, relationships, sex, and race are winning over audiences and proving anyone can overcome their shortcomings.

Dan Soder

Comedy Works Downtown in Larimer Square

June 29, 30 & July 1

Originally from Aurora, CO, Dan Soder started doing stand-up at ripe age of 21. After two years of playing clubs and casinos all over the southwest, Dan decided he'd had enough of extreme heat and venomous animals, so he moved to New York to get serious about stand-up.

Most recently, Soder premiered his first stand-up special, NOT SPECIAL on Comedy Central. His other credits include appearances on Comedy Central's The Half Hour, John Oliver's New York Stand Up Show, Inside Amy Schumer and he's appeared multiple times on CONAN and @Midnight. He can be seen as "Mafee" on Showtime's Billions series and you can listen to The Bonfire radio show, which he co-hosts with Big Jay Oakerson, on Sirius XM every Monday and Wednesday at 6pm ET.

Previously, Dan hosted the Yahoo! Screen web series, MANSOME and was a cast member on MTV2's Guy Code. Dan was the standout at the 2011 Montreal Just for Laughs Comedy Festival and voted funniest comedian at the New York Comedy Festival. He has also performed at the SXSW festival in Austin, TX.
