S01E02 Danton Lamar: Leading w/ Laughter
Manage episode 337407458 series 3370475
Welcome to Scribbles & Spills, a podcast where creatives of all kinds expound on their art and spill their secrets.
Meet Danton Lamar, an American comic living in self-imposed exile. He's brought his story-based racially charged awkward charm to Asia, Europe, Russia, the US, and now Canada.
He runs The Comedy Lab: Toronto’s only all-minority-run comedy club, and Werd (Word) Entertainment: an events and production company dedicated to elevating marginalized voices. He produces upwards of 12 shows a month including Dope Comedy, at the gorgeous Broken Cage Gallery. You can follow him on Twitter and Instagram @DantonLamar.
Danton and I discuss the qualities of leadership, the importance of representation, and uniting through diversity.
