Comedian Jeff Dunham Strikes Gold on European Tour
April 16, 2009 by Stage Time Magazine
In his first overseas tour, comedian Jeff Dunham sold nearly 30,000 tickets to fill major venues in London, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Helsinki and Oslo.
The European release of his three DVDs on TV, retail and mobile platforms prior to the tour have been key to his overseas success. A Very Special Christmas Special topped the Danish entertainment chart. Dunham is the only American to boast two titles on the UK chart. Spark of Insanity hit #2 in DVD sales in The Netherlands and is also the most viewed show ever on Comedy Central Holland.
In addition, Dunham boasts 360 million worldwide views on You Tube, with which he recently struck a content partnership after scoring three of the all-time most viewed clips on the site.
