Mike Simmonds

Universal Blind Comedian

Ever since someone stole his cup and pencils, Mike Simmonds has lit up the stage with his unique perspective as a blind comedian. The only thing uniting each of Mike's performances is laughter ~ plenty of it.

Mike's show covers a full range of topics including smoking, sports, relationships, traveling and a look into the world of the blind. Audiences everywhere applaud his inimitable style of tying life's moments together and his remarkable impressions ("Jim" from Taxi, "the Champ", Jack Nicholson, Sting, Bill Clinton and more), all designed to keep you entertained and laughing. Find out the only province that still lets him drive and witness his resurrection of Dean Martin, George Burns and Howard Cosell (he can raise the dead!). Theres music too with his "Harmonica Orchestra" (...well he is blind you know).

Do blind people really play hockey? Yes, and it's as entertaining and unusual as you can expect when Mike relates the game. It's "heads up" laughter as the NHL comes to play any time of year. Find out the truth about Mike's high sticking infraction which led to a two week suspension from a major grocery chain. Mike is also the driving force behind pucknfunny.com, a comedy fundraising show, that tours Canada rasing money for hockey teams.

Whether the function is a black tie affair or a team wind-up Mike gets a feel for the room and has it roaring from start to finish.
