Darren Henwood

Hailing originally from Scotland, Darren Henwood brings his lively and often angry perspective to stages in and around Montreal. Having started his comedy career as both a performer and comedy promoter in his native Glasgow, Darren has performed all over the UK and at both the Edinburgh and Glasgow Comedy Fringe Festivals before moving to Canada. Similarly, here he promotes his own show (run out of his own basement) called Lowdown Comedy which with it's sparse technical set-up and selection of lawn furniture really embodies his no frills approach to humor. On stage Darren reveals hilarious true stories from his own life along with imparting a Scotsman's perception of Canadian culture during his sets (which often end up with audience members dragged into them with hysterical results). Recently featuring in the 2011 edition Montreal's Young Guns of Comedy Darren is quickly becoming a name in the Anglo comedy scene that you don't want to miss.
