Jeff Dunham, along with his famous characters Achmed the Dead Terrorist, Walter, Peanut, and Bubba J., has embarked on a groundbreaking global tour, spanning five continents and covering nearly 100,000 miles. He performs in venues where few American comedians have dared to tread. In places like Singapore or the United Arab Emirates, a misstep in humor could lead to immediate arrest. Bringing Achmed the Dead Terrorist on stage in Malaysia, despite government warnings, could result in an extended stay in Kuala Lumpur. As Dunham adapts his comedy to resonate with local audiences—whether it’s Achmed’s apprehension about returning to the Middle East, Walter’s cluelessness about race relations in South Africa, or Bubba J. finding like-minded individuals in Australia—he demonstrates that humor can transcend cultural boundaries. Most of the time.
