Nick Offerman: Big Woodchuck

An evening of comedy with woodworking and bookish mirth.

An evening of deliberative talking and light dance that will compel you to chuckle whilst enjoining you to brandish a better side of humanity than the one to which we have grown accustomed. You will find me draped in a magnificent squirrel blouse, hand-crafted by Fort Lonesome of Austin, Texas.

While still uproariously funny, Offerman’s set was almost relaxing at parts... His performance was just so natural and very conversational in nature, seeming as though he was simply having a chat with his buddies.

No matter what his topic was, his jokes landed effortlessly, eliciting laugh after laugh from the audience. Offerman can definitely be described as a more jovial version of his iconic “Parks and Recreation” character — opinionated, to-the point and well-spoken.

Offerman’s “All Rise” was a highly entertaining, yet beautifully simple experience. Even though Ron Swanson once said “Never half-a** two things — whole-a** one thing,” Offerman proved he could master comedy, song and storytelling in one hilarious package.

This special yields a substantial amount of focus on personal hygiene and grooming techniques. But then I delve into other iterations of that titular phrase. I talk about preparing oneself to live in a survivalist way, fully in the bush as it were, which also involves making things with one’s hands. Implements of survival. I talk about loving one’s family, loving one’s neighbors. Meaty stuff, but always with a chuckle.

This collaboration between myself and my astonishing bride Megan Mullally, otherwise known as “Queen of the Pixies”, is an entirely melodic and ribald pageant which might make you giggle and, more importantly, inspire some romance in your own life.

Handkerchiefs. Red meat. Minor nudity. In my first comedy special, I enumerate my “10 tips for Delicious Living”. I gained about 30 pounds for this show, so as to appear more relatable. Filmed at New York City’s historic Town Hall.

Hello to the United Kingdom! I aim to tickle you severally this late October with a 5-city tour, called FULMINATIONS with Nick Offerman. The evening will feature songs, mirth, lessons in comportment, Cumberland sausage-talk and other euphemisms. We will also be featuring my new book LITTLE WOODCHUCKS, a thinly veiled screed urging us all to make things out of wood with our kids and our communities, with vigorous personal eye contact, lest we allow the billionaires to curate our every footstool. This show is heavy on affection.

We’ve packed our chisels and we’re hitting the road on what we call a “book tour” for LITTLE WOODCHUCKS! We hope you and your family will come ready for a night of woodworking, mirth and tomfoolery in a city near you. Tickets include a signed copy of LITTLE WOODCHUCKS.

Join Nick for a night of deliberative talking, mirth, and music. An evening that compels listeners to chuckle while also causing them to honestly countenance the aspects of humanity about which we have to laugh so that we don’t attack one another with shovels. If the evening is light on dance, the audience has only themselves to blame.
