Michael Turner

Michael Turner brings his high-energy stand-up comedy to the DC Improv for a three-night run from August 6 through 8. A comedian, avid beer drinker, and lifelong sports fan, Turner schedules his tours around his favorite teams—the Bengals, Reds, Suns, and Sun Devils—and often shows up in town the same week those teams are playing. He has built an online following through stand-up clips and NFL tailgate videos under his series "Mike’d Up." Born in Cincinnati, he started doing stand-up in Phoenix before moving to Los Angeles to pursue comedy full-time. His credits include a stand-up special on Don’t Tell Comedy, appearances on Chocolate Sundaes and Netflix Is A Joke Radio, sports coverage for NBC Sports and Bally’s Sports, and work for Fox covering NASCAR and Professional Bull Riding. He also created the Road Warrior Tour, performing shows alongside the Cincinnati Bengals road schedule. Turner has been featured on Kevin Hart’s LOL Radio, KFC Radio for Barstool Sports, The Danny Brown Show, and Stuff Island Podcast. The supporting lineup is to be announced.
