James Heneghen is a veteran comic. He first got on stage in 1993 and trudged his way through the rungs of hometown comedy scene. He has been working as a headliner for well over a decade, as well as giving support to touring comics in the Seattle area. Heneghen has become known as something of a legend around here, but the truth is that he is just a damn good comic that is a true craftsman and dedicated to his art. Over the past 20 years on stage he has developed a distinct improvisational-based style, often times going to many small shows every week just to do fresh material, which is never written down or done the same twice. For a guy that won't remember your name until you've met 30 times he has an incredible ability to get on stage and simply be funny.
James draws his material from a lifetime of downright puzzling situations, from signing up for the Vietnam war, hitchhiking across the entire Country in the 60s, sneaking into Woodstock and then eventually raising 3 sons in Bellevue. he has shared the stage with many superstars, and has been a finalist in the International Seattle Comedy Competition more times than can be remembered. He currently hosts a monthly Sunday night showcase, "Heneghen & Friends" at the Comedy Underground, Seattle's longest running comedy club.
He has been called "King of Seattle" by Ralphie May and "a fucking maniac" by that shithead in the green Accord who apparently learned how to drive under water.
All bullshit aside, Heneghen never does the same show twice, and as someone that has been around comedy for 20+ years- it is a real treat to watch him go up, whether it is 10 minutes off the top of his head to 15 people at an open mic or a finely polished penis joke to a packed house of yuppies, watching Heneghen do comedy is watching someone do what they love and do it well, which is a beautiful thing.
I'll end this with quote from Hari Konadbolu-
"I feel like there is a comic in every scene that teaches you something, where you're thinking, this guys gets it. He loves this and you don't understand why he isn't huge, and Heneghen is one of those dudes"
- just a Seattle comedy nerd.
We're excited to also welcome Lisa Curtis, Aaron Kirby, Sean Murphy, Mitch Mitchell and Alex McKay!
