Tom Tran
Standup Comedy started off as an experiment for Tom Tran. Just like jumping out of airplanes, snorting pixie sticks, and being black, he just wanted to know what it would be like. He got the chance to find out in college when he took a theatre class for “three easy credits” he needed to graduate. For his final project he wrote five minutes of material to perform in front of the class. The other students laughed so hard, some of them actually pissed themselves. But it turns out that it was because their teacher refused to give them bathroom breaks. Whatever the case, comedy became his new passion. But more than just his passion, comedy's become his therapy and his saving grace.
