The Comedy Bureau Field Report Ep. 152: Shaun Landry & Having Space(s) for Diversity in Comedy
For years and years and years, Shaun Landry has made her mission to really “do the work” and really, truly, and deeply commit shows and venues and festival (that she has all founded by the way) to include as many voices of all backgrounds as possible. That’s why she has seen her dream, The Ledge Theatre through several venue changes to its current home, a space shared by The Impro, on the second story of a strip mall in Los Feliz in LA to put on exactly the type of inclusive shows she would like to see more of.
Landry talks with us on this week’s TCB Field Report about her comedy journey throughout the decades (Shaun has so many great comedy biz stories) and making The Ledge Theatre her answer to the shortcomings of so many improv theaters/schools before she founded it.
