? ? Regular Event Info! ? ? Join us for an internationally-minded hour
of hilarious, challenging comedy!
Stand up meets storytelling in a show written around the world, as
Matt Davis stitches a personal narrative underneath ideas developed
while performing in over 250 cities across more than 50 countries.
Matt masterfully jokes about language, nationality, & global/regional
customs; as well as his and our perceptions of them. Throughout, the
show aims a focused message: that we dismiss the equation familiar
equals good.
? ABOUT MATT DAVIS ?
Matt Davis has performed at the prestigious Just for Laughs festival
in Montreal, JFL42 in Toronto, Sketch Fest in San Francisco, KLICfest
in Malaysia, UICF in Utrecht, Netherlands, the Bengaluru Comedy
Festival in India, the Top of the World Comedy Festival in Kathmandu,
Nepal, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, Fringe World in Perth,
Australia, and many others.
In addition to 20+ years of performing, his comedic short films have
been featured in collectives at the Film Dayton festival, the LYAO
comedy festival, and the Cincinnati Film Festival.
In 2015 Matt launched the World in Jest project to embody the belief
that real and imagined borders can be crossed when people prioritize
communities of shared interest. By connecting with communities of
performing artists across the globe, the project was able to produce
over 100 performances across 30 countries in its 13 months; including
many where he was the first international or American artist to work
with local scenes (Mongolia, Macedonia, Bulgaria, and
Bosnia-Herzegovina to name a few). Having evidenced its hypothesis,
the World in Jest project was closed. While continuing to tour
internationally, Matt Davis has begun working on a larger project and
accompanying one hour show to embody his ethos more fully; of which
BadFamiliar is the first step.
