Give Every Guest a Show Worth Talking About.
Al Getler brings television-tested comedy, sharply drawn characters and genuine audience connection to stages where one room may hold children, parents and grandparents—all ready to laugh together.
Your audience gets more than a string of jokes.
They meet Al—and then the trouble starts. Floyd barges in with his own opinions. Muddy Paws struggles heroically with the word “ventriloquist.” Miss McNeely arrives with the confidence of a star who has never questioned her billing.
Al’s timing comes from a lifetime in front of audiences and cameras, plus 35 years as a media executive. He knows how to read a room, protect a host’s reputation and turn a crowd of strangers into one laughing audience.
Built to meet the audience where they are.
The material stays unmistakably Al. The pacing, participation and production are adjusted for the kind of experience your guests came to have.
Theaters
A complete evening with character-driven comedy, visual variety and a performer who can fill the room without losing the people in the back row.
Resorts
Warm, multigenerational entertainment that becomes part of the vacation story. Guests leave talking about the characters—and about each other’s reactions.
Cruises
A portable, adaptable show with clear comedy and strong visual personalities—ideal when every sailing brings together a fresh mix of ages and backgrounds.
yearWoodloch holdover
Held over for more than a year at Woodloch Pines Resort.
Al was not booked for one night and forgotten. Woodloch kept bringing him back for more than a year because his show connected with the resort’s multigenerational guests—parents, children and grandparents laughing together in the same room.
That kind of run only happens when an act is reliable behind the scenes, easy for staff to work with and memorable enough for guests to keep responding.
“He’s engaging with the guests. He’s funny, he’s witty.”Patrick Kiezendahl · Woodloch Pines Resort
The cast has opinions. Al has to live with them.
The comedy comes from distinct characters—not interchangeable puppets—and the wonderfully unpredictable conversation they create with Al and the audience.
Floyd L. Smith
Al’s longstanding partner who has all the answers and hysterical comebacks!
Muddy Paws
The canine comic who proudly practices his career as a “VEN-KILLO-KIST.”
Eleanor Paterson
Making up for lsot time in the 1960’s, dispensaries are her favorite hang out.
Performance credibility lives onstage.
Al brings more than 1,000 A&E appearances, national television credits on CBS and ABC, and 35 years of executive experience to every room. He knows how to prepare like a professional and still make the show feel spontaneous.
At Woodloch Pines Resort, that combination connected so consistently with multigenerational guests that Al was held over for more than a year. The result is an act presenters can trust and audiences remember.
