Marty Putz

Marty Putz (and yes that's his real name) is one of the world's hottest and most popular exponents of bizarre and unusual comedy. Taking the label "prop comic" to new heights, he entertains his audiences with some of his "inventions." Items like a game of "human baseball" (Marty dons a giant six foot baseball glove on his head, and audience members throw marshmallows at him), and the "rodent projectile unit" (a hand held cannon which propels a pet hamster through the air and into a waiting target). A giant inflatable "Elvis" suit, in one of it's many forms, has become his trademark.

Starting out in his hometown of Toronto, Canada, Marty began his career in comedy playing small clubs. His unique brand of humor caught on quickly, and soon he became one of the most requested comedians at clubs, colleges and major corporations throughout North America. Marty delighted audiences for two consecutive years at the "Just For Laughs" International Comedy Festival in Montreal, where agents from the United States (talent, no Immigration) urged him to move down. Marty gladly complied, and after only a short time in the states, his career really took off.

 

  Marty has become a favorite headliner in comedy clubs and theaters across the U.S. and he performs over 150 college dates a year. His American television credits include appearances on "the Tonight Show with Jay Leno," "The Jerry Lewis National Telethon," along with numerous guest appearances on Fox's "Comic Strip Live" and "Sunday Comics." Marty has quickly become a favorite on Comedy Centrals "Make Me Laugh", where he just finished taping an unprecedented 15 appearances. As well, Marty hosted the Emmy award winning children's show "Not Just News." Across the ocean, Marty has also been featured on British Television with appearances on BBC's "Friday Night Live," and most recently on "The Jack Dee Show." Following an appearance on Australian television's "Hey Hey It's Saturday," Marty headlined 3 months of sold out performances in Melbourne and continues to return yearly to sold out houses.
