#56. Will Franken: Surrealism, Absurdism, and Satire

I recently was exposed to a style of stand up comedy that I didn't know existed. A man took to the stage and played multiple characters in a series of sketches, combining impressions, acting, absurdism, satire, surrealism, and straight up jokes into a hilarious one man show. His name is Will Franken and he truly is one of a kind. The first clip I saw was about Extinction Rebellion and featured Will's interpretation of Greta Thunberg, I highly recommend you watch at least this clip before checking out this podcast, just so you have a flavour of what Will does.... and so you can laugh your ass off! I sat down with Will for an awesome in depth conversation about comedy, how he got started and developed his act, his career, and this led on to a broader conversation about entertainment and the world we inhabit. Too many subjects to list here, buckle up for an exploration of a fascinating mind and one of the few comedians who are out there pushing the limits of what is possible on stage. This is a man who at one point in his career was writing and performing a new 90 minute show every month, and he almost never writes anything down! Will has had a long career and is a prolific artist, I encourage all comedy fans to check out his YouTube channel to see more of his work, but nothing beats seeing him live. All of his upcoming dates are available on his website www.willfranken.com
