Originally from a small town in Wisconsin, this former factory worker skipped college to pursue his childhood dream of stand-up comedy. His dry wit and cerebral absurdism quickly earned him regular television appearances on Comedy Central, Conan, Jimmy Kimmel, Netflix, Showtime, Epix, and Amazon Prime.
Shane has now partnered for a residency with Area15 in Vegas to present ‘A Better Trip.’ This show makes use of the many different skills he has gained over the years to explore big ideas with levity, visuals, and atmosphere for a comedy show unlike any other.
