Last night, I was lucky enough to see impressionist and comedian Jim Meskimen live at The Acting Center in his show, “Jimpressions.”

Billed as “The Man with an Infinite Number of Voices,” Jim may be best known for doing the voice of George W. Bush and other politicians on the viral JibJab videos.  He can do just about any star you can name (Okay, mostly men, but Butterfly McQueen and a few other fems found their way into the show).  Jim seems to have a special talent for finding humor in blending unexpected elements, like singing selections from the Beatle’s White Album as Frank Sinatra.

Not only are Jim’s voices dead on, but he’s a hilarious comedian.  His observations about some of the personalities he mimics are as funny as they are true.

Playing to a sold-out crowd, Jim had the group in stitches for over an hour with “Jimpressions.”  Can’t think of a time when I’ve had more fun at a comedy show.
