...laugh-packed shows reminiscent of Mark Twain and Bill Cosby! - Billings Gazette

  • Much as Hal Holbrook gives voice to Mark Twain’s world, Tim Behrens plays more than 40 zany denizens of Blight, Idaho, (just south of Famine, ID) the fictional home town of nationally renowned humor writer Patrick F. McManus

  • These 5 distinct, G-rated, one-man comedies for theatres… and the corporate/conference shows… all have one guarantee in common: your audiences will laugh louder, harder and longer than they have in years. If they don’t, you don’t have to pay the actor! (We aren’t worried: often the laughter is so loud it hurts Tim’s ears.)

  • Don’t just take our word for it: the comedies have toured 23 states and two provinces to more than 450,000 pretty happy audience members. The Billings Gazette called them “laugh-packed shows reminiscent of Mark Twain and Bill Cosby!”

  • The story telling is universal, accessible, imaginative, intelligent, and most of all, funny. The Cultural Arts Manager of Auburn, WA, where Tim sold out three shows, said: “I have never heard such sustained laughter in a theatre.”

The theatre was packed, about 95 degrees, and Pat had his shotgun out in his van if I embarrassed him. So I begin the show in less than ideal...
