About this Event
Have you ever wondered what the world might look like through the eyes of a blind man? You will.
For the last thirteen years, Blind Stein has taken to the road with a comedic style that is as keenly aware as it is gut-wrenchingly funny. The gregarious 40-year-old non-practicing Catholic, who hails from the blue-collar bubble of West Peoria, IL. Uses his sharp, sarcastic tongue to skewer everything from politics to pop culture to the hilarious details of his own Chaotic life.
Blind Stein has toured crisscrossing the nation from the Carolinas to California and Wisconsin to Louisiana. Both fulfilling and shattering stereotypes, Blind Stein will keep you thinking and laughing the whole time. Call it insight, call it hindsight, he’s got no sight. But you’ll call it funny.
