Dan McKee is a stand-up comedian of courageous action, questionable morals and is really quite confused.After a few years in Canada to discover himself he returned to the UK disappointed with what he had found.

SALT BOX COMEDY CLUB
One night in Edinburgh, mentioning a lack of comedy opportunities in Norwich, Dan McKee decided to set up his own comedy night. After being drunkenly assured this was a very good idea by some more successful friends of his he found nobody in Norwich told him he could not.
Thus Salt Box Comedy Club was born. Dan McKee is the resident compere and booker at Salt Box Comedy Club.

About me:
Raised in Norwich I spent many years in darkened back rooms of provincial theatres attempting to read clever works of literature.After realising comic books and Doctor Who was far more worthy of a man's time and Pinter's just tedious I decided to head off to university
After writing some mostly terrible sketch comedy I thought I felt a burning desire to act. I was wrong. It was food poisoning
I disappeared to the colonies for a few years and upon my return decided to get into stand-up comedy.
Now I'm back and if anybody fancies a quick game of Atari Classic Centipede let me know
Who I'd like to meet:
People who can give me gigs and people who like comedy.Come on boys and girls.
