Bio

Where did it all go wrong and why all the anger. Can’t we just be friends and get along. No…. No we cannot.

Welcome inside the head of.. LITTLE DARREN FROST. What can I tell you that is not already known. I could just tell you I am funny but I think that is subjective and believe me…some nights I am not so sure.

I started performing standup in 92. I became a professional in 95. I have quit seven times throughout my career but like crack I steal from my parents to make sure I keep the habit alive.

Hack comedy used to pay my rent. I was a happy comic from Nov 92 – Aug95. Then I started to realize that maybe these jokes are lame and not really appropriate for a mid twenty year old to be telling. Then I saw the light and got off so more hack comedy could be told by others.

I believe that my comedy could be best described by Neil Young “Traveling there was really boring so I headed for the ditch. It was a rough ride but I met more interesting people there.”

I am not the best but not the worst. I try to be different to just be accepted by the masses and in the end I will never play Fairview, Alberta again.

There is more to my story but you will have to find here inside this webpage. Or if you would like to see the show business bullshit version here is my bio for your consumption.

LITTLE DARREN FROST

“Frost’s standup has the quality of a satanic revival meeting. He brings so much bile and venom to the stage it can be overwhelming. Frost is at his best when he tempers his barbs with a little finesse and ast night he showed this technique off to great affect. Among the most daring comedians in Canada.”
Toronto Star February 2005

He is uniquely eccentric and one of the reigning kings of “way-out” comedy. A young man whose sole purpose is to “slam a stapler against the forehead of popular culture.” Darren thrives on hyper-driving criticisms, dark revelation and lunacy. His ability to command the undivided attention of an audience is remarkable.
Most recently Darren has joined the cast of the hit CBC show Mr. D playing the new addition of angry French teacher. Darren also with upcoming appearances on The Ron James Show and CBC Debaters for CBC radio.  He will be filming his fourth DVD Special called Cursed in March of 2013 as well as recording his popular weekly Sirius XM radio show Anything Goes.
He was twice a warded top ten comedy moments of the year by Toronto entertainment magazine Now with another mention in the year end comedy wrap of 2012. Darren has been awarded the prestigious Kari award for Best Performance in a Commercial in Canada. He has also performed in various comedy festivals including Just For Laughs, Winnipeg Comedy Festival, and LOL Sudbury.  In 2007,  Darren was one of only four non US comics invited to compete in the Seattle International Comedy Competition.

Numerous movie/television appearances to his credit including Hairspray with John Travolta, the Ethan Hawke film Assault on Precinct 13, the Drew Barrymore/Jimmy Fallon film Fever Pitch, a role in the Michael Douglas feature Don’t Say A Word, principle role in the new Kojak series starring Ving Rhames.

Darren lends his voices to a many cartoons including: Camp LakeBottom, Chuck and Friends, BeyBlade,  Bakughan Brawlers, Stoked, Sixteen, NBC Discovery Kids Time Warp Trio, PBS’s Timothy Goes to School, Showtime’s Gahan Wilson’s The Kid, and Fox’s Medabots. He also has been featured in many memorable national commercials currently the Cash For Life Fairy, and old favorites Microsoft’s Hermes Messenger of the Gods, and Listerine’s Action Hero Bottle.

Not of this earth or simply full of fudge: you decide. Direct from Brantford, Ontario, he’ll have you convicted and healed all at once.

“Highly recommended.  Stretches (maybe fists?) limits of good/bad taste. But it all works.   At times looks like he’s going to stroke out. Then he’ll whisper menacingly. But the tension & interest never lets up.  He channels anger at various injustices (revisionist history about the dead) or moronic pop figures (Jersey Shore, Biebs) into perfect rants and has a terrific way of getting us on the side of his most offensive material. Wouldn’t want him on PTA, but fuck is he funny. ” – Glen Sumi Now Magazine 2012
