WATCH JAY ON LATE NIGHT WITH DAVID LETTERMAN!
"EXTREMELY FUNNY! A SUPER-VIRTUOSO! I expected to enjoy The Two and Only, but I didn't expect to be touched, much less to find my eyes growing moist." -Terry Teachout, The Wall Street Journal

My Interests

In his 30 year career, Jay Johnson has thrilled generations of ventriloquist-avoiding Americans with his charm, anarchy and innovative wit. In Jay Johnson: The Two and Only! he deconstructs and demonstrates his lifelong obsession. Jay Johnson is best known for playing the schizophrenic role of Chuck and Bob on the classic television comedy Soap, and is recognized as one of our foremost ventriloquists. In the show, he takes us on a multi-dimensional journey that combines his skills with a parade of characters that range from a subversive monkey to a withering tennis ball. He is a writer, philosopher, comic, poet, and artist. Jay Johnson: The Two and Only! comes to Broadway after receiving rave reviews during its triumphant off-Broadway, Los Angeles, and Boston engagements. Since Broadway, the original Bob character from SOAP has been admitted to the Smithsonian, Jay and Bob have been honored to have their caricature's hanging on the wall in Sardi's. Jay Johnson: The Two and Only received the 2007 Tony Award for Best Special Theatrical Event as well as Independent Reviewers of New England honors as Best Visiting Production and the 2007 Los Angeles Ovation Award!
