Comedian Josh Blue will take the stage at Goodnight's Comedy Club in Raleigh for three nights this week, including three shows on New Year's Eve. 

Blue, who has cerebral palsy, was a fan favorite when he won NBC's "Last Comic Standing" in 2006. He often uses his comedy to dispel stereotypes about the handicapped. 

Since winning, he has been touring nationally doing stand-up, and recently got his own Comedy Central special. He has also performed at the HBO-Aspen Comedy Festival, Comedy Central’s South Beach Comedy Festival and The Comedy Festival in Las Vegas.

Blue is also active in the US Paralympic Soccer Team and competed in Athens at the Paralympic Games.

Blue will headline shows Thursday and Friday nights, in addition to his shows on New Year's Eve at 7:30 p.m., 9:30 p.m. and 11:30 p.m.
