One of the hits of the 2011 Edinburgh Comedy Festival, and a Just For Laughs veteran, Ron Vaudry’s smile is like a warm ray of sunshine on a basket of puppies… but what comes out of his mouth is a tad edgier. Biting, scathing, and always hilarious, there’s no “off” switch on Ron’s “tell it like it is” button. He has performed on numerous televison shows in the U.S., Canada and the U.K., and one reviewer called him, “a satirical genius teetering precariously at the edge of comedy.” Reserve your tickets now!
