I know it works for me, and so far, it works for my audiences. When people come to my show, they have a good time.”
Comedy Style: With a high-energy blend of side-splitting comedy and popular music, Jimmy Flynn remains Canada’s “Ambassador of Good Cheer.” Dressed in his trademark red checkered shirt, yellow sou’wester and rubber boots, Jimmy takes the stage, glances over the audience and erupts into volcanic comedy that melts the audience. The bottom line: this guy is hilarious!
Jimmy’s down-home music always strikes the right chord with his audiences, and his stand-up comedy is fast-paced and hilarious. There’s never a dull moment at a Jimmy Flynn show.” I never get tired of people telling me how much fun they had at one of my shows,” says Jimmy. “That’s what keeps me going. If I can brighten somebody’s day, or help them forget what was bothering them when they came in, then I’m happy.”
