Bio
“He's top-grade funny. Not just ‘he's pretty good but I don't really watch after the first night’ palatable, but right on your ass funny. Really funny.” -- Doug Stanhope from Comedy Central’s, “The Man Show”


Lonnie Bruhn had Cerebral Palsy before it was popular. (Josh Blue winner of NBC’s Last Comic Standing) Only a couple of letters off of Lenny Bruce -- Portland Tribune 2006

So the majority of comedy shows can be a full-on tossup, either rum-and-Coke-spewing-from-your-nose funny or utterly painful to the point that the closest thing resembling a laugh is really just an effing hiccup. But here at WW, we like the edgy shit. And we know you do, too. The Cripple XXX Comedy Tour is so offensive, so crass, so derogatory, in fact, that most joints won't even book the freakin' thing. And yes, one of the two comedians, Lonnie Bruhn, a native Portlander, was born with cerebral palsy. But don't feel sorry for him—he's sure to get the last laugh. -- Willamette Week 2006

It's become gradually clear that Portlander Lonnie Bruhn is a standup comedian who doesn't hold back. His act is so relentlessly dirty that few comedy clubs will even book him, though thankfully for us, Sabala's isn't one of them-- The Mercury 2005


“One of the darkest comedians we’ve ever seen.”-- The Mercury 2002


Lonnie Bruhn has quickly become one of the edgiest comedians working today. Unafraid to speak out onstage the subjects and taboos that most people will only whisper… to their psychiatrist. His humor is the ultimate escape from the bland days of political correctness, overused premises, and nonsensical bull that most comics get by with. Lonnie refuses!!!

Born with Cerebral Palsy, Lonnie Bruhn shows to all of us that he’s not crippled. The world is. Bruhn proves why he is a role model to anyone with a disability… and anyone that has ever done anything really perverted and was too ashamed to tell the story… Come see for yourself why Bruhn has built one of the most loyal fan bases in the country.
