Comedians

Jim Wiggins

EARLY 70's...  JIM WIGGINS co-hosted a Chicago Style Comedy Club with his friends Tom Dreesen, Judy Tenuta, Emo Phillips et al. Many comedy careers were spawned during those years.

LATE 70's...  JIM WIGGINS bought and remodeled an old Hollywood whorehouse into a rooming house for the country's comics who were massing to L.A.'s infamous Comedy Store and Improv. The list of names who, like Wiggins, wrote comedy for television during the day and perfected their routines at night, is as long as it is interesting.

Early 80's...  JIM WIGGINS walked  with his wife and five kids, from Hollywood to the White House in Washington, D.C. to have a chat with President Ronald Reagan, calling their trek, "Walkin' Proud, Talkin' Loud for America". A reverse journey is  planned, followed by a book of essays.

LATE 80's...  JIM WIGGINS invested in Palatine, Illinois' famous "Durty Nellies", a legendary comedy and music hall, hosting many of his fellow comedians in this outrageous mental gymnasium. Wiggins also hosted an award winning cable TV show called, "The Silliest Show in the Suburbs".

EARLY 90's...  JIM WIGGINS worked consistently "on the road" which took him from Alaska and the cold Canadas to Miami and the warm Florida sands, from New York to San Diego and every large and small stage in between. He also hada six month run in Cozumel, Mexicos' first and only comedy club, entertaining and performing, even doing a show during the horror of Hurricane Roxanne. The show, as they say, goes on...and on...and on.

THIS CENTURY...  JIM WIGGINS continues to travel the country performing his delightful one man show entitled... "SILLY STUFF & SAD STORIES, REFLECTIONS OF A 60'S RELIC". He performs in Las Vegas and comedy stages in clubs, colleges and corporate conventions nationwide. The show goes on.  Jim was also, choose as one of the ten finalists on NBC's "Last Comic Standing".
