Dunham attends a ventriloquist convention

Jeff Dunham has been an inspiration for ventriloquists everywhere.  Before he rose to comedic success in 2003, I would have thought that ventriloquism was a lost art.

This is clearly not the case.  Ventriloquists from all over the world will be gathering in Ft. Mitchell, Kentucky, July 14-17, 2010, for the 34th Annual International Ventriloquists’ Convention.  The event is sponsored by Vent Haven Museum and will be held at the Drawbridge Inn and Convention Center.

The theme of this year’s convention is “Focusing on the Future,” and will be home to over 400 ventriloquists as they explore group workshops, seminars, round-table discussions, tours of the Vent Haven Museum, nightly performances, and so much more!  Jeff Dunham will be leading the workshops with his lecture on “Enhancing Your Performance Skills.”  Other topics are to include showmanship, microphone technique, marketing, creativity and uniqueness.

“The Vent Haven International Ventriloquist Convention is the only convention dedicated to the art of ventriloquism. Held each year in Ft. Mitchell, KY, at the Drawbridge Inn & Convention Center, this event has seen about 12,000 ventriloquists through the years learn about the ancient art of “belly-talking.”

If you can’t get enough from your Jeff Dunham tickets, his new DVD is in stores now and he is currently on the road performing with your favorites: Achmed, Jalepeno, Walter, and all the other dummys!  Keep checking back for more Jeff Dunham news.
