Stand-Up Comedians
Will Durst

Outraged and outrageous, Will Durst is as current as today’s headlines, as accurate as a sniper, and universally acknowledged by even his peers as the nation’s foremost political comic. A Midwestern baby boomer, Durst, according to the New York Times, is “quite possibly the best political satirist working in the country today.” This equal opportunity offender is exceptionally adept at swatting both partisan political piñatas upside their heads. Although a prolific writer, he professes little need for material, having it regularly delivered every morning in the five papers he reads daily. Durst is a regular commentator for audible.com, Air America, CNN and NPR, writes a nationally syndicated op-ed column, daily website jokes —yet still finds time to perform hundreds of comedy shows every year. Durst's hobbies include the never-ending quest for the perfect cheeseburger, while his heroes remain the same as when he was twelve — Thomas Jefferson and Bugs Bunny. Whenever he gets the chance, Durst hits the road.
