Today we’d like to introduce you to Reggie French.
Hi Reggie, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today.
2016 on advice from the producer of a radio show I was doing at the time, I walked into Backdoor Comedy Club to do one open mic just to say I tried it. That first night on stage, I got a huge laugh and have been chasing that laugh ever since.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not, what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
No, it has not been a smooth road. Comedy is not easy no matter how easy the greats make it look. Clean comedy is even harder because of the perception people have that clean comedy is not funny. Navigating the business and politics of the comedy world can be roadblocks.
As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar, what can you tell them about what you do?
I am a stand-up comedian that works completely clean. My material works in any venue from comedy clubs, churches, or private events. Because of my clean nature, I was giving the opportunity to host a monthly clean show that gives comics a platform to perform using a skill that they may not always practice. I am proud that I am able to share my talent in a way that it entertains and my granny can enjoy.
If we knew you growing up, how would we have described you?
Growing up I was a nerd very book smart, and that’s how I found out I was funny. I would finish my work and turn into a class clown, even making the teachers laugh before being sent to the principle office. I was shy and nervous in front of crowds when I was young. I would get popped a lot for not wanting to sing in the church youth choir. Glad I grew out of it.
