Chris Ruppe, a seasoned comedian, brings laughter to diverse audiences across corporate settings, theaters, churches, and charity events. Notable for warming up The Huckabee Show’s audience and earning acclaim as a finalist in Nashville’s National Clean Comedy Challenge, Chris recently wrapped his first comedy tour with Jonnie W. His debut comedy special, A Matter of LIFE and DEAF, is now available on DryBar, marking a significant milestone in his career.
Known for his clean comedy, Chris draws on his unique life experiences. Raised by deaf parents, he shares touching yet hilarious insights from his upbringing. As an adoptive parent, his comedy also delves into the joys and challenges of adoption, and he finds humor in the crazy observations of daily life. A devoted family man, married with four children, Chris and his wife champion adoption through their Metrolina Adoption Fund, lightening the financial load of the adoption journey for many families.
His comedy isn’t just about humor; it’s a heartfelt exploration of relatable stories, blending sincerity with laughter.
Art's a smart, funny comic with the interests of a 20-year old and the body of a middle-age man. His observations on pop culture, being a father and how you can change so much and so little over the span of decades have cracked up audiences all over the East Coast.
