Directed by Theodore M.E. Taylor
Theodore M.E. Taylor
Follow comedian Theodore M.E. Taylor as he discusses cultural and political differences, the pressures of poverty and passing in affluent company, and code switching and shaping identity around social prejudices in his breakout comedy special. Taylor enthralls the audience while coming to terms with the extreme lifestyle choices of loved ones, surprises within racially mixed marriages, training pets to be racist, and overcoming stereotypes. He explores the absurdity of societal behavior around holidays, the commercialization of iconic heroes, the short-sightedness of cancel-culture, and the farcical aspirations of having it all. Recognized as "Houston's Funniest Person", and part of "Best in Fest" at the Burbank Comedy Festival, Taylor shines in this sensational hour long special taped at the Deluxe Theater in Houston, TX
