THE CHRIS & PAUL SHOW

Created in 2000, The Chris and Paul Show is a stylized modern-day vaudeville act. Hearkening back to classic Hollywood, Chris O'Neill and Paul Valenti are "modern vaudevillians" that take silent film-style sketches and bring them into the 21st century.

Performing pantomimed scenes with minimal or no dialogue, Chris and Paul have the astounding ability to take seemingly predictable situations and build in such twists and turns that audiences are left in total disbelief after seeing their signature surprise endings!

In 2019 they were finalists on NBC's Bring The Funny.  Judge Kenan Thompson referred to the duo as "Super funny. Not like anything I've seen before.” And Judge Jeff Foxworthy exclaimed: "You got all these laughs without saying a word and that's a special skill set. I couldn't stop laughing, I was beating the table, and that's what BTF is all about.”

In addition to touring across the US and Europe, they are also International Comedy Winners with honors from the Edinburgh Fringe Festival including Best Actor in a Comedy (Chris & Paul tied), the Montreal Comedy Festival, the New York Television Festival, the INNY Awards, the New Jacks Comedy Competition, the Jackpot Sketch Festival, & the Chicago Snubfest Festival.

With followers on Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook, this sketch comedy duo is now hosting "The Chris and Paul Show: Podcast"!  Spending plenty of time being silent on stage, Chris and Paul are breaking their silence in order to make your morning commute more fun. There are interviews with comedians, games, off-the-wall sketches, and so much more!

The Chris and Paul Show is always inventive and dynamic with these two extraordinarily talented artists!
