Frank Erwin Center | Press Releases

AUSTIN, TEXAS – Jeff Dunham, a ventriloquist and true veteran of the comedic stage, is bringing his suitcase of friends, including Walter, Achmed, José Jalapeño and more, to The Theatre at the Frank Erwin Center on October 2 for a night full of laughter and fun.

The recent success of this shrewd, contemporary and cutting-edge comedy team has moved Dunham and his three-foot tall sidekicks out of comedy clubs and into sold-out concert halls and performance arenas across the country. Dunham’s team consists of Peanut, a self-described comic genius; Walter, a man whose opinions on any person or any subject spew forth in a delightfully unbridled fashion; José Jalapeño, a jalapeno ‘on a STEEK!’; Melvin, a no-real-power superhero who wants to save our country from evil; and Achmed, the dead terrorist.

As a guest on “The Best Damn Sports Show Ever,” “Blue Collar TV,” CMT’s “Fast Living,” “Late Night with David Letterman,” and more appearances on “The Tonight Show” than any other ventriloquist in history, Jeff and his crew feel equally comfortable on the sports, country and comedy couches.
