One of the most accomplished performers
in stand up comedy and a headline act in clubs and theatres across the
UK, Reginald D Hunter has been described as 'the coolest man
in comedy' and 'the Samuel L Jackson of stand-up'. But
there's a lot more to him than a mesmerising presence and composed,
confident delivery. This American has that killer combination of great
gags and intelligent material. In short, he's the complete comic.
Hunter's easy-paced, storytelling style is by no means laugh a minute
- but his control of delivery ensures that he could beat most gag
merchants hands down. And he's not afraid to talk his way through some
contentious comedy terrain - the subject matter for his past shows -
gender/race politics and racism - suitably proves the point. Woven
between his sharply observed comedy touches are some dark, honest
revelations: he can make you reconsider your own attitudes while
examining his own misconceptions and assumptions.
After his Edinburgh Fringe debut, I Said What I Said, Hunter's
two follow up shows White Woman and A Mystery Wrapped in a
Nigga , gained huge critical and public attention - partly due to
the controversial nature of the shows, but primarily because of his
extraordinary skills as a comedian. Almost inevitably, Reginald D.
Hunter is making the move from the stage to the screen, with a TV
Pilot - The Blackout.
