We're excited to present the high-octane comedy of Michael Thorne. Audiences love Michael's energetic style, his insightful jokes and his cartoon-like vocal delivery. If you could hook Michael up to the power grid, you'd run Xcel Energy right out of business. Michael's shows are always memorable because they traditionally end with some of the most devastating closing bits in comedy.
Michael Thorne is an amalgam of culture and white trash raised on a greasy spoon in a borough of Minneapolis aptly named "Nordeast". He has brought his hilarious observational insights on evolution (or the lack thereof), human relations, marriage and parenthood to back-woods bar rooms, colleges, casinos and "A-List" comedy clubs from coast to coast and border to border. Michael grabbed the attention of Hollywood big wigs at one point, who urged him to leave Minnesota to further his career. But Michael favors the Midwestern family life. He will take you on a wild and hysterical tour of the minefield that is his life
