https://www.thebadgettplayhouse.com
For nearly 30 years, William Lee Martin has been making America laugh with his fast-paced, "PG...in 1985" brand of comedy-fun, a little edgy, but never filthy. His new tour, Red Dirt Comedy Presents: William Lee Martin - Seemed Smart at the Time, delivers another round of original, heartfelt storytelling that turns everyday life into side-splitting laughter.
A prolific writer, Martin refreshes his material every year, so no two tours are ever the same. The show kicks off the moment you enter, with a full audio-visual experience featuring music he's written himself.
Seen in his hit specials, popular tours like The Funny Life and Nuttier Cracker, and his podcast The Red Dirt Comedy Show, Martin's comedy is real, relatable, and full of heart. A proud family man and Texas cowboy at heart, he reminds us to laugh at life's absurdities and enjoy the ride.
If you want a comedy show that's as smart as it is hilarious-this is it!
