Josh Blue brings The Freak Accident Tour to Vashon Center for the Arts with opening act Janae Burris on August 16, 2023, at 7:30 pm.

Tickets: $50-$55 at www.vashoncenterforthearts.org

JOSH BLUE began his career as a comedian while seeking a creative writing degree at Evergreen State College. After his groundbreaking win on Last Comic Standing in 2006, Josh Blue has become a well-established headliner at venues worldwide. In 2018, Josh crushed his set on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. That same year, he was honored with a performance at the William H. Macy Gala at the prestigious Just for Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal, Canada. He wrapped up 2018 by recording his fifth one-hour special, Broccoli, at his home club, Comedy Works, in Denver, CO. In 2021, following his 3rd place finish on NBC's America's Got Talent, Josh Blue hit the road with his As NOT Seen on T.V. Tour.

Josh does over 200 shows a year, continuing to spread laughter and break down stereotypes of people with disabilities (Blue has cerebral palsy). His stand-up routine is constantly evolving, and his off-the-cuff improvisational skills guarantee that no two shows are alike. 

Josh represented the United States in 8 countries as a U.S. Paralympic Soccer Team member. Josh and his team were thoroughly disgraced in the 2004 Paralympic Games in Athens, Greece, by not scoring a single goal. He is a single father living in Denver, CO, with his son and daughter.

JANAE BURRIS is a Denver, Colorado, comedian, actor, and event host. She grew up in South Los Angeles and is an alumna of the California Institute of the Arts. Her years growing up in one of L.A.'s most notorious neighborhoods, combined with her training in avant-garde theater, make Janae's comedy style something like a one-woman show, a perfect fit for Shit Talk Tours, which she hosts regularly at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Denver.
