Ryan & Friends: All-Star Comedy

April 6 – October 19, 2024

Comedy rules when Ryan returns to our stage with every one of his friends: witty 8-year-old Jeffrey, who lives in a suitcase and travels Third Class on airplanes; Harold and Irene, who have way more opinions than your average grandparents; and not-so-silent beasts Ardy the Skunk and Randy the Rooster, plus a new mystery guest—all hilarious and high-energy friends who barely let Ryan get a word in edge-wise.

This “best of” special highlights all of Ryan & Friends’ greatest hits in an uproarious multimedia variety show, combining uplifting comedy skits with audiences’ most-requested parody songs in styles ranging from country to Broadway. Laugh along with this popular comedian, ventriloquist, musician, and all-around funny guy and, of course, his friends.

Don’t miss out on music and merriment that comes with a great message!

Harold & Irene are a couple of hilarious older folks who aren’t shy about sharing advice on topics ranging from iPads to iHOPs. Wherever they go, they’re fan favorites.

A country critter who has had his fair share of run-ins with vehicles and over-zealous animal lovers alike, Ardy is a hit with fans of all ages.

Randy the Rooster
