JOHN KNIGHT

At a time in life when most males discover puberty, John Knight, with his high grade-point average and low-brow humor, discovered the punch line ~ he literally was meant to be a career comedian. He started performing stand-up in his senior year of college, and dropped out nine credits short of his degree, when faced with a long line at registration: "I was a history major in college, which means you have two options when you get out of school. You can either teach history, or go on Jeopardy and hope for the best."

Instead, John has appeared on Showtime's Comedy Club Network, Star Search and A&E's Comedy on the Road. Happily, he found a career where a bad attitude is rewarded. John gets laughs with a routine culled from the classic comic format of everyday distractions, stretched to their exaggerated limits. Within the first few minutes, Knight will describe himself to the audience as "negative", "cynical" and a "pessimist". A downbeat attitude from a comedian rarely sounds so harmless or hilarious as it does from this man!

Whether entertaining with pure stand-up comedy on stage or performing his “world’s worst motivational speaker” set for a corporate audience, John’s off-beat humor hits home with even the most diverse of audiences.
