  • Josh Blue Opens up About Cerebral Palsy, 'Last Comic Standing'
    Cue THURSDAY, OCTOBER 15, 2015 SECTION C Audra McDonald Saturday, October 17th, 8:00 pm TICKETS START AT $40 309.671.1096 peoriasymphony.org PE-4493521_V2 Josh Blue opens up about cerebral palsy, ‘Last Comic Standing’ BY THOMAS BRUCH OF THE JOURNAL STAR PEORIA — One of the best stand-up comedians in the business, Josh Blue, will be performing at the Jukebox Comedy Club this weekend. Blue, 36, won Season Four of “Last Comic Standing” in 2006 and has since been a staple on the stand-up comedy circuit. Though he has earned many plaudits and has been featured frequently in stand-up specials, he might be best known for having cerebral palsy — something he pokes fun at in a self-deprecating manner in his performances. Yet he also talks about it to highlight what you can accomplish while living with the disorder. Blue will appear at the Jukebox at 8 p.m. Thursday, and at 8 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday. Tickets cost $20 except for the Thursday show and the late Friday show, which are $15. Tickets can be purchased at the comedy club or online at www.jukeboxcomedy.com. The Journal Star talked to Blue recently about his career, “Last Comic Standing” and another one of his successful endeavors. Q: In retrospect, what’s your opinion on “Last Comic Standing” for younger comedians or comedi- ans who haven’t gotten a shot yet? A: I have mixed feelings about it. Obviously it really helped me blow into the scene. But it’s still a dumb reality show.
