If you..re like Johnny Beehner, then you..re 6..5.. and fascinated by how compasses work. Johnny..s clean and clever style of humor has entertained audiences across the country for years. Targeting primarily himself as the butt of his jokes, you can..t help but laugh. Johnny has been described as being ..silly,.. ..smart,.. ..hilarious,.. and even ..tall!..
Johnny started his comedy career putting on his own shows during his college years. He spent the summers between the school years pounding the pavement in the comedy world in New York, and then Los Angeles. He is currently traveling the country proudly telling thousands of complete strangers what an idiot he is and explaining exactly why that is.
With a strong background in improvisational theater throughout all of college, including training at Chicago’s prestigious Second City, Johnny brings a very unique show to the stage. He was a finalist in the Chicago chapter of NBC’s Last Comic Standing in the second season. He has also performed comedy at Milwaukee’s Summerfest, the world’s largest music festival.

About me: www.johnnybeehner.com............................................................ ....
I am a stand up comic out of Milwaukee, WI. I have been at it since mid '99. Things are going pretty great. I guess I am on myspace for the purpose of networking in the comedy world as well as meeting cool new people. I am also a member of the 4 man sketch comedy group, The Gentlemen's Hour. We perform shows every other Sunday in Milwaukee, and occasionaly at ComedySportz. (www.thegentlemenshour.com) Make sure you check out "www.johnnybeehner.com." Its got my full schedule, different video clips, and other crap that I can't figure out how to put up on my myspace page. Please send me a message if you see a show on my schedule that is around your area. Thanks for supporting live stand up comedy and me!
Thanks for the add Beehner. Saw you tonight at Dr. Grins. You killed it. I met with you after the show. I was the dude from Waukesha. If you like impressions, I do them. Check out my page. I have 2 Youtube vids on there. Other than that, best of luck to you.
Hey Johnny, looking forward to working with you in a couple weeks. Quick heads up on the rules:
1. No beards. 2. If you need to speak to me, I prefer you do it as an 80s rapper. 3. Avoid the use of the letter 'd' in your act...it's sort of what I'm known for.
Do you have a brother in Canada? Nancy and I went to Chicago Friday night and met someone from Canada who could be your twin!! He acted just like you it was freaky!!!
