Wet Willie Goes To Karate

Wet Willie Goes To Karate is a poignant, laugh-out-loud solo comedy that dives headfirst into the emotional wreckage of a broken heart and the wildly unconventional “counseling” Willie turns to in order to survive it. Through sharp storytelling, physical comedy, and raw honesty, Willie navigates love, loss, pain, and healing—sometimes gracefully, but mostly crying seated in the butterfly position.

This ONE NIGHT ONLY live performance and taping offers audiences an intimate, unfiltered look at a show in its most electric form—where anything can happen, laughter hits harder, and the stakes are through the roof. Expect big laughs, unexpected vulnerability, and the kind of cathartic energy that only exists when comedy and truth collide in the same room.
