Bob Nelson Comedy Show

Now at The Barbara Fairchild Diner, 3044 Shepherd of the Hills Expressway in the Victorian Village (next to the Hamner Barber Theatre)

Performing stand-up comedy since 1977, Bob Nelson has planted himself and his family in Branson and is now performing at the Barbara Fairchild Diner in 2010.

He has previously performed in many well-known places: Radio City Music Hall, Las Vegas, The Ford Theater (for President Ronald Reagan), Carnegie Hall and on Broadway.

He's been on The Merv Griffin Show and The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson.

He was on the The Ninth Annual Young Comedians Special, which is where he introduced his classic football piece (where he parodies the old team rundowns in the NFL All Star games in which players announced their names, number, and their team...watch it here!) and one of his most popular characters, Jiffy Jeff, a punchy prizefighter.

You may have also seen him on his two HBO specials or in the movies Kindergarten Cop, This Is My Life and Brain Donors.

Come see Bob and his list of zany, rubber-faced characters in Branson at the Barbara Fairchild Diner. Bob gets his laughs with silliness (not vulgarity), so don't hesitate to bring the whole family! The show is 90 minutes long (no intermission).

Shows are Tuesdays, Wednesdays & Thursdays at 8 pm; May 4 through December 9, 2010.
