Behind the boyish charm and impish innocence lies a ventriloquists doll with a dirty mind and a dirtier mouth. Jeff Dunham is the hilarious equal-opportunity offender of good taste. Hes so politically incorrect that anybody else would be arrested. <\/p>\n
He takes on everybody from President Obama to star neighbor Britney Spears, from Mexican aliens to gays nobody is spared, not even the Popeyes and adjoining Chevron gas station restaurant manager from Mesquite or the retired print-paper salesman from Alabama, both of whom sat front row Wednesday night at Planet Hollywood. <\/p>\n
Its savage and scything sarcasm and ridicule at Jeffs new show Not Playing With a Full Deck, and everybody wants to be the target of invective from Jeffs wacky collection of characters, including Tiny Jeff, who is an infomercial spawn of the comedian himself. The wrestling chase scene between the two of them is so realistic that I understand why Jeff himself gets grazed and banged up on the floor. <\/p>\n
But its Peanut, the purple insult prince, and Achmed the Dead Terrorist who generate the most laughter, particularly with the question cards for Achmed from the audience. I will never know if Jeff walked into the trap from Phil McCracken or if he is the best actor at feigned surprise in the business. <\/p>\n
Thats his charm. He or should I say his puppets? can say anything and do. Be it rude, vicious, comedic or vulgar, the jokes come at staccato speed, and your stomach is in pain from the laughter. Its a minefield of political sarcasm and religious risks that has audiences in hysterical delight while he softens the blows with intimate family photos that also get a lashing. <\/p>\n
The figures, or the little people in the boxes, as he calls them, are the stars of the show to the point where the talented master manipulator behind them is almost overshadowed in the effortless back-and-forth alternating accents and body movements. <\/p>\n
