Since 1988, Allan pursued his true passion as a stand-up comedian and progressed to headlining shows around the U.S., including his own Dry Bar Comedy Special. Allan truly loved to make people laugh, spend time with his comedy colleagues, and felt blessed to share the comedy stage with numerous A-list comedians.
