Healthcare workers get the last laugh at new comedy club
The Unknown Comedy Club show Laughter From The Frontlines will provide all the fun of an in-person show with none of the hassle By Glenn Sumi
Co-founder Daniel Woodrow hopes The Unknown Comedy Club continues even after the pandemic is over.
Over the past year and a half, we’ve all read and seen a lot of stories about healthcare workers doing their best on the front lines of the pandemic. It’s serious, life-and-death stuff. But now there’s a comedy show where some of those workers get to laugh amongst themselves – and entertain others about what they’re going through.
The Unknown Comedy Club, a Canadian, Black-owned, online comedy club is set to present âthe best stand-up from around the world each weekâ in live, exclusive streams from a virtual comedy club, said the club in a statement.
Founded by Rodney Ramsey and Daniel Woodrow, The Unknown Comedy Club â by way of Toronto and Montreal â has gained success for presenting a high quality entertainment experience for performers and audiences alike.
Ramsey and Woodrow have worked to have The Unknown Comedy Club feel like an in person comedy experience complete with a 3-D virtual venue, pre-show DJ sets, interaction with performers and other audience members throughout, and an avatar host to warm the crowd and keep the show moving between acts. |It s a professional comedy club experience from beginning to end that audiences can enjoy on their home screens from anywhere in the world.â
