Luke Thayer's Comedian Bio
|
| Bio | Luke Thayer decided to enter the family business in the most unusual way. As the son of a preacher, Luke is spreading the good word... of comedy. Well-versed (haha) in stand-up, sketch and improvisational comedy, Luke is a clean comedian that weaves in and out of silliness and observation. He loves sharing his own personal embarrassment along with commentary on the lunacy that is life.
After college, Luke won multiple local comedy contests in his hometown of Indianapolis before moving to New York City. He has trained at the Improv Olympic Theater in Chicago and the Upright Citizen’s Brigade Theater in New York City.
Luke is the co-creator and producer of the popular live show, "The Living Room" in Brooklyn, NY where he performs stand-up and over 25 original sketch characters. He can be seen at famous venues of the New York underground scene including the Upright Citizen’s Brigade Theater, Rififi, and Gotham City Improv as well as various clubs around New York City and the country. He has been heard on WVIP New York’s Ebony and Ivory Show, Cringe Humor Radio Network’s Schachter Factor, and has been featured in INtake Magazine, and seen on MTV.com and Lifetime.com. | | Website | comedianluke.com |

Luke Thayer's Interests
|
| Movies | You've got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know... morons. | | Heroes | Chris Farley-I still wish I had gone to the grand opening of Planet Hollywood Indianapolis, which turned out to be one of Chris' final public appearances. Instead I worked my shift at Funcoland. I was 17 years old; regrets, I have a few.
The Three Stooges-I wish I was a stooge. |

About me:
Just a simple comic living in the big city. I co-produce a pretty cool show in Brooklyn called "The Living Room" at Postmark Cafe--Come check it out: www.myspace.com/livingroomcomedy.
|
Who I'd like to meet:
Jerry Seinfeld-anybody that knows me doesn't have to ask why.
Bill Cosby- my earliest comedic influence, and still one of the biggest.
Victoria Jackson-one of the first people to encourage me to pursue comedy. Before I had ever been on stage, she sent me an email reply telling me to go for it, and I'll be eternally grateful for that.
