This month, we’re doing something a little different for BIPOC Business After Hours. We are coming out to support one of our local comedians and comic collective founders in the BIPOC community. It gets lonely out there on the comedy front, so we are showing up for him as he hosts his next show.
The Third Place is providing 15 free tickets to attendees from the BIPOC community. Join us at the Lost Valley Brewpub restaurant at 6:30 p.m. before the show to mix and mingle. We look forward to having a good laugh and supporting a rising comedy entrepreneur. Our very own Faith Douglas, Board Vice President will be a guest judge.
Leonard Kimble is the president and founding member of The River Comics. He’s an up and coming comedian from Auburn, ME, where he lives with his wife, two kids, and a cat he doesn't want. He spends his days as that IT guy who works on stuff you don't really care about. Originally from Chicago, Leonard bases his comedy on things he has said to his wife in the car, whether it be about their kids or life in Maine. The sound of strangers laughing at something silly that he wrote in his basement fuels him to his next gig.
In 2018, Leonard's first year doing comedy, he was a semi-finalist in the Empire Summer Comedy Classic in Portland, a semi-finalist in the House of Bacon Wednesday Night Live Comedy Competition, and a semi-finalist in the Maine Event Comedy's Tightest Five Competition in Auburn. He also advanced to the second round of The Last Comix Standing at the Mohegan Sun. He really enjoys the semi-finals of competitions because of all of the free beer.
