Comedian Will Durst Performs at Sturgeon Bay’s TAP

Will Durst will return to Door County after a 32-year hiatus for one night only at the Third Avenue Playhouse on Jan. 18 at 7:30 pm. The New York Times wrote that comedian and writer Will Durst “is quite possibly the best political satirist working in the country today.” He is a five-time Emmy nominee; has been fired by PBS three times; told jokes in 14 countries; racked up 7 nominations for Stand-Up of the Year; and has made more than 800 television appearances.

The critically acclaimed Off-Broadway run of his one man show, The All American Sport of Bipartisan Bashing, was subsequently turned into a book of the same name by Ulysses Press.

“He’s an equal opportunity offender with a restless mind and delicious sense of language,” wrote the Los Angeles Time. “Where most comedians give us attitude, Durst brings style and has one thing in common with the best: a sense of moral outrage.”
