 Six foot one and a big Black bundle of comedy
fun. Donald Mack is one of the new generation of Black stand-up comedians. Old enough to know
better, but young enough to not give a shit! Donald Mack is a unique comedian. He balances his
material between his "Old Skool" roots and his "Nu Skool" attitudes. This
means that anything (well almost) and anybody is up for ridicule including the Mack Daddy himself.
Donald's love of comedy harks back to the 60s and 70s when he first
saw Morecambe & Wise live. Donald's comedy heroes includes the late giants but he has also
been inspired by the likes of Tommy Cooper, Red Foxx, Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphy, Robin Williams
and Bill Hicks amongst others, so expect a cheeky chap who keeps his hard-hitting material as real
as can be.
Donald turned to performing comedy full-time this year. However, for
the past 5 years he has been meandering around the UK, performing in every sort of watering hole
and comedy venue that man (or woman) can conceive, whilst dealing with four children, three mums,
two day jobs and a mortgage.
Donald may be cuddly and lovable, but he's also hard-hitting, uses
explicit language (sometimes) and explicit material (all of the time) and a bloody good laugh to
boot. With Donald, be it social, political, sexual or surreal it's going to be damn funny. His
unique take on life and our perceptions is fuelled by his dual belief that "Shit
happens" and "So what!"
Born of Jamaican parents, Donald describes himself as a six foot one
bundle of comedy fun. The truth is he looks more like a Bouncer. He attempts to foster charm, wit
and stylish good looks. He only achieves two out of three because you can't change nature without
a good plastic surgeon.
