But that’s not what makes comedian Brad Williams funny, that’s what makes him funny looking. A 26-year-old with Achondroplastic dwarfism, Williams riffs on his condition, battling stereotypes by embracing them.

Over the last few years, Williams has toured the country opening gigs for Mencia and even appeared on his Comedy Central show, Mind of Mencia. But this Thursday at 8:30 p.m., catch Brad Williams solo at the Miami Improv. He’ll also be doing sets on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
