Book Now!

If you are contemplating booking Wellington, do yourself and your guest a favor and book now! I booked him for my husbands birthday and he was a big hit with our guests. My husband laughed all night and everyone is still talking about how much fun they had and how funny Wellington was. He also had an opener, Marian Ballard, who was very funny as well. Wellington was professional, respectful, and exceeded my expectations. Thank you so much!

Wellington was a perfect fit for our event!

My face still hurts from laughing!

We invited Wellington Juku to come and do a comedy show for an event that celebrates the volunteers at our church. Kareem 'Plug' Chapman and Ms. B. (two other Gig Salad comics) kicked off the night by having our guest in tears long before Wellington finished us off with pain filled laughter! All three comics made our volunteers feel loved and appreciated. Our entire church would recommend Wellington for any event that you need to have a good laugh. Make up an event just to have him, it will be worth it!

Always a show stopper!

I am lucky enough to book and work with Wellington often. He’s always a solid performer who elevates the quality of every show regardless of his role or place in the line up. Not only is he a talented comic but also extremely professional and easy to work with. But what I appreciate about him the most is how he makes a point of sizing up the crowd ahead of time and adjusts his set list on the fly to make sure the audience has a great time and making sure I (as the Booker) looks like a genius for putting him on the show.

Clean (but not corny) and hilarious in front of all crowds

I have booked Wellington several times to close my Limerick Comedy showcase in Virginia-Highland, and every time he leaves the crowd in hysterics. His material is super-relatable, and both young and old people in the crowd crack up at him. I also have seen him perform in front of club crowds and corporate crowds, and he is as versatile as a comic can get. Can't recommend him highly enough, and if I ever need "a sure thing" on a show I call Wellington.

Wellington was a hit at our company Christmas Party

The company that I work for just had a Christmas party that was quite unique. There were several things going on at once (eating, drinking, dancing, entertainment, drawing for prizes, karaoke) so it was busy, to say the least. I hired Wellington to host the event and he did not let me down at all. He was very flexible, positive and helpful the whole time. Unfortunately, I kept changing things up on him, but he handled it with so much grace and just went with it. And he even wore a santa suit while doing it!

Of course he was hilarious. The guests enjoyed him. It takes true talent to make people laugh of varying races and socio-economic backgrounds. The entire crowd was laughing!

Wellington was patient, and went with the flow. He was quick on his feet and fun to work with. It felt like he was a part of the family. He has my highest recommendation. I would book him again and again!

He came, they laughed.

Wellington Juku was the right choice to book on the Stand Up at Studio 48 show in McDonough Ga. He really communicated with the audience and gave them a peak into his hilarious mind and life. And his preformance was well executed, there were no words wasted and he masterfully ended his set with a perfectly timed call back that showed his skill as a comedian was at the next level.

Super Comedian

One of the other comedians had to cancel at the last minute Juku stepped in and saved the day. He was only contracted to do a 30 minute piece. But he ended up hosting the event as well as doing a 45 minute piece. If you are in the needs for a very funny comedian who loves what he does, Juku is your COMEDIAN... Thanks Juku....

SATURDAY MORNING CARTOONS: Comedy After-Hours

With a passion for comedy that spans 20 years, I've found that comedians who've approached stand-up as an artform instead of a pastime are more impressive entertainers. Wellington Juku is no exception.

His comedic timing draws the audience into his world just long enough for his masterful impressions, artistically written material and hilarious perspectives to make you a lifelong fan. Each of his performances has been a one-man showcase featuring whatever the venue requires. A consumate-comedic professional for hire...hire him!
