Comedy & Tragedy
Welcome to AlaskaComedy.com’s new
and improved website. My name is Jerry
Evans, and over the past 20+ years I’ve
had the opportunity to work with and
meet some of the best, most respected
comedians of our time. Take a look in
our “Green Room” and you’ll see what I
mean. Thanks for checking us out and
please take a look around, and lemme
know what you think. I’ll be updating
frequently.

48 hours after
the tragic fire
at The Blue
Loon, the
nomadic T.J.
Miller show tore
up the Theater
in Pioneer Park.
Sold out and
then some (just
ask the dozens
who gladly sat
in the isles to
be part of the special evening). A lot of laughs and a lot of
love. T.J. couldn’t have been funnier and nicer as he
donated a sizable amount of his hot sauce sales to
rebuilding the Blue Loon. Open Cash Levy crushed and
comedian Jamie Lissow was in town and hung. Thanks to
all who made the move of venues possible on such short
notice. Mayors Matherly and Ward, the Police
Department, Donnie and all at Pioneer Park, Rick Mensik
and everybody who helped cut through the massive red
tape in less than one working day. To lifesavers Glenner
(who also rocked), Jonathan at AUP, Newsminer, KTVF,
KXLR and all it’s sister stations, Amanda Hanson, Natalie
Nuebauer, Trish, The Blue Loon, Gary Black, Anna, Ryan
and Mason and ton
more, thanks for
making Fairbanks
such a cool place
to live. And to the
people that came
out to laugh and
support, thanks.

Kicking off the 22/22 Comedy Season
An Original “Outlaw of Comedy”
Jimmy Shubert!
A veteran of stage and screen, Jimmy is one of the
rare triple threats in today’s comedy scene. “Whether
it’s in a sold-out three thousand seat theater, or in
the middle of a war zone in Afghanistan, “my mission
is to make ‘em laugh as hard as I can.”
On screen, Jimmy has played everything from a
prison guard in a hostage crisis to a murder victim
on “Monk.” Jimmy has worked with such marquee
names as Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Charlize Theron,
Katie Holmes, Robin Williams and recently did a
guest star on CBS comedy “2 Broke Girls.” He plays
Betty Whites neighbor in
the NBC show “Off Their
Rockers.” He’s made
three appearances on
HBO’s hit comedy
“Entourage” after five
years in a recurring role
on CBS’s “King of
Queens.” He has also
made appearances on
such shows as “Heist,”
“ER,” “Reno 911,” “Rude
Awakenings,” “Angel,”
“Lucky,” “New Car Smell,”
“Sonny With a Chance”,”
“Just Shoot Me” and
“Youth In Revolt.”
It was at the Comedy
Store where he first met Sam Kinison. Kinison liked
Shubert’s chutzpah and included him as one of the
original “Outlaws of Comedy” which he toured with
for five years, playing major casinos in Las Vegas
and other venues like the Universal Amphitheater in
front of audiences as large as 6,500 people.
