About this Event

James Austin Johnson does standup comedy -- this ain't an "improv jam" no, this ain't a "storytelling moth guy" thing, no oh oh. Nobody on stage is gonna say something intense, take a half beat, and then say something just a little less intense. It's a comedy show. Not the damn Christmas Carol starring Michael Caine! Relax, enjoy yourself, enjoy standup comedy from the man the Atlantic called "maniacal and mechanical"!

James Austin Johnson is a comedian originally from Nashville and a featured player on SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE. The New York Times has called him “one of SNL’s most versatile celebrity impressionists.” His spot-on impression of Trump paired with his improvisational ramblings about Weird Al, Julia Louis Dreyfus, and Scooby Doo have garnered over 5 million views, with profiles on James in Vanity Fair, Slate, Mashable and VICE to name a few. As an actor, James' TV/Film credits include FUTURE MAN, BASKETS, ROBBIE, BETTER CALL SAUL, THE LAST TYCOON and the Coen Brothers’ feature HAIL, CAESAR!. As a stand up, James has performed on the Vice series FLOPHOUSE, as well as RIOT LA and JUST FOR LAUGHS as a New Face.
