Andy Woodhull was the first comedian to make a network television debut on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” and he’s also the first comedian to return to The Comedy Zone at Walton Arts Center. Don’t miss this return performance when Woodhull takes the stage with his signature brand of comedy on Saturday, April 18 at 7:30 pm.
Woodhull knows how to make just about any crowd laugh, and has been doing so for nearly 15 years. He was originally inspired to become a comic by his father and has said his father always joked around with him and treated him as a friend rather than a son. Woodhull and his father also used to watch the TV show “Seinfeld,” which was another source of inspiration for him. Woodhull has said that he believes Jerry Seinfeld has perfected the art of observational comedy.
Even if you don’t know his name, if you are a fan of comedy you’ve probably seen his work. He has appeared on “The Late Late Show with James Corden,” “Conan,” “Live at Gotham” and “The Half Hour on Comedy Central.” Meanwhile, his Dry Bar Comedy special has over 12 million views on YouTube and all six of his comedy albums are in rotation on Sirius Satellite Radio. He worked as a writer on SYFY’s “The Movie Show” and was featured in two episodes. In 2024, he taped a hosting gig on the CW unscripted series “TOTALLY FUNNY ANIMALS.” He also recently started a Podcast called “Backyard Hang” with Tommy Johnagin and Alex Stone.
“I write from my life, which doesn’t set me apart from other comedians, but I’m the only one that has lived my life so in a way it still does,” Woodhull says. His comedy is focused on relatable topics that he has life experience with like divorce, being a stepfather and family life. Woodhull has such a unique sense of humor that still connects to every parent, stepparent, spouse or divorcee.
Woodhull is well known for his “clean” comedy performances and comedy albums. He describes his comedy as “PG-13” rated, saying he would let his 10- and 12-year-old daughters watch some of his performances.
