Overview

Early in his career, Ronn Vigh's brash attitude and acerbic wit earned him a comparison to a young Joan Rivers by SF Weekly. It was certainly a fitting comparison, as Ronn later became a writer for Rivers on her hit E! Television show "Fashion Police."

Ronn regularly performs at comedy clubs, colleges and festivals across the nation. He also co-hosts the sports-comedy podcast, "Switching Teams: A Gay Dude & A Straight Dude Talk About Sports."

His biggest accomplishment: Working briefly as a flight attendant and not attempting to smother any of his passengers with a pillow.

Very funny. Stands out.

He has a very quick delivery style and engages the audience unlike some of the other comics who we booked that evening, when we recently had an event. He's strattles the line of edgy and endearing but many of my co-workers were re-telling his jokes the next day. He really was the stand up stand out star of the evening.

What to expect

I am an experienced emcee, host, interviewer/moderator and of course, stand up comedian. I have worked comedy clubs across the country but also have experience working casinos, outdoor festivals, corporate events and theatres.

I've got jokes for days. I'm also savvy at doing crowd work and being in the moment. My style is set up/punch, fairly bold and rapid fire. I live in the moment and love a challenge. I am gay- that will come out in my act. I mean, you'll know as soon as I open my mouth. However, I'm suitable for all sorts of crowds and engagements and draw inspiration from all aspects of my life. I also listen to my client. If there is something you do or don't want.... let me know. As an experienced comic and professional, I will let you know if it can be accomplished.

About

Early in his career, Ronn Vigh's brash attitude and acerbic wit earned him a comparison to a young Joan Rivers by the SF Weekly. It was certainly a fitting comparison as Ronn later became a writer for Rivers on her hit E! Television show "Fashion Police."

Ronn regularly performs at comedy clubs, colleges and festivals across the nation. He was featured on NBC's "Last Comic Standing II" and also co-hosted the popular sports-comedy podcast, "Switching Teams: A Gay Dude & A Straight Dude Talk About Sports."

A working stand up comic for over 20 years, Ronn is also a skilled host, emcee and moderator for your event. He has the ability to "keep on talking" and "think on his feet" while being entertaining and engaging. He's also a "comic who happens to be gay." Being who you are on stage is really the key to honing a successful act. However, Ronn is experienced and skilled at adapting his act to the audience in the room at that precise moment.

Ronn has also led a career as an award winning mixologist, flight attendant, freelance writer and certified yoga teacher.

Influences and inspiration

I've definitely been influenced by Joan Rivers. Most children want to watch wrestling matches or cartoons. Not me. As a child, I made deals with my mom that would allow me to stay up late and watch Joan fill in for Johnny Carson on Monday nights. I later wrote jokes that Joan would say on her E! Television show, "Fashion Police!"
