Headlined by the very funny Jim McCue. Jim McCue went viral this year with his DryBar special “nothing personal” which has had over 5 million views. A mixture of witty “A-list material” and his ability to work off-script has earned Jim McCue the title “Boston's King of Crowd Work!” It's not only his height of six foot six that makes Jim stand head and shoulders above club comedians of the “stick-to-the-script” variety. Jim blends thought-provoking material and uncanny improv skills with a style that encourages audience participation. No two shows are ever the same! Jim has been featured on Comedy Central, Comcast Comedy Spotlight, NBC's “Last Comic Standing,” RedEye FOX and Gotham LIVE AX TV and “Roughing It” on NESN in his native New England. Jim also founded and currently runs The Boston Comedy Festival. He works in top comedy clubs in Boston, Las Vegas, New York, Dublin, Montreal, and Edinburgh. Since 1999 Jim has also entertained U.S. troops at more than 200 bases around the world. An account of his experiences performing for the troops has recently been published in Embedded Comedian which Jim describes as a “field manual for comedians in a war zone.” With his unique act, Jim keeps the audience on its toes. Volleying between set material and crowd work, Jim cracks jokes with amazing timing and whip-like precision. A unique blend that is sure to leave the audience roaring with laughter!
