About Comedy Underground

Open seven nights a week in Pioneer Square since 1981, the Comedy Underground is among the most venerable nightclubs in the country. It’s philosophy of success is to present talented acts who have something incisive to say in addition to always being hilarious. Fans may not recognize all who appear here but we are confident they eventually will because our track record of presenting future stars is, well, out of this world.

Your Emcee: Bengt Washburn

Bengt Washburn is a former winner of the prestigious San Francisco International Comedy Competition. He has been seen on The Late Late Show with Craig Fergusen, Live at Gotham on Comedy Central and most recently Conan on TBS. He was invited to perform at the Vancouver International Comedy Festival, The Boston Comedy Festival, the Aspen Laff Festival and Gilda’s Laugh Fest in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Bengt has been heard on NPR, PRI and Bob and Tom. All three of his comedy Cd’s can be heard playing on XM Sirius radio.

Most people who know him would say Bengt is a logistically impaired ditz, but his comedy is described as intelligent, surprisingly universal considering the content matter and profoundly funny.
