Brian Atkinson performs at the Maumee, Mary, & Joseph Comedy Festival, April 18, 19, and 20 in Fort Wayne, IN.

Brian Atkinson

Brian Atkinson is a comedian an all-around nice guy, and a horrible person. His guy next door look gives way to surprising twists – like when he provided voices for PBS Kids and acted in a Lifetime Movie Network movie, as a serial killer, in the same studio, on the same day. His voice might be the first thing you notice, but his confidence, and engaging storytelling will keep you laughing. Brian Atkinson makes jokes, but only the finest artisan, hand-crafted, farm-to-table-saw jokes.
