Tommy Johnagin, an autobiographical comedian who doesn’t curse on stage and has a gift of finding something funny in everyone he meets and everything he does, will come to Laughs Comedy Spot on April 29-30.

Johnagin takes great pride in his writing. He is already a favorite at comedy clubs all around the country working almost every week.

Johnagin was the first runner up of the most recent season of NBC’s “Last Comic Standing.” Other TV credits include Comedy Central’s “Live at Gotham,” CMT’s “Comedy Stage,” “The Late Show with David Letterman” and John Oliver’s “New York Stand Up Show.” In 2009 he had his own half hour special on Comedy Central that re-airs regularly.

He has also appeared at Comedy Central’s South Beach Comedy Festival and has been a guest numerous times on the nationally syndicated radio program The Bob and Tom Show.

Johnagin started stand-up at the age of 18, dropping out of college at 21 to become a full-time comedian. He vows he will one day make enough money to pay his parents back for the six semesters of college he wasted.

Johnagin takes the stage at 8 p.m. and 10 p.m. April 29-30 at Laughs Comedy Spot, 12099 124th Ave. N.E., Kirkland. Tickets are $15. For information, call 425-823-6306 or visit www.laughscomedy.com.
