[edit] Biography

Danny Mendlow lives in Vancouver and is a stand up comic, writer and actor. He will occasionally rap lyrics over mad beats as well. Audience members tend to wonder how a homeless teenager snuck past the bouncers and is on stage when he performs. He cries himself to sleep most nights and thoroughly wishes he had been born a dog... or a tree maybe.

He is currently working on three major projects.


1. Writer for the upcoming sketch comedy show FineLine [1]

2. A secret project which shall remain unnamed.
3. Another secret project which shall be named "Too Far" that is all you shall know for now.
4. A third secret project which doesn't actually exist. This may make you wonder about the validity of the other two secret projects but I assure you those ones are very real.

Great Sets @ Yuk Yuks competition 2006/2008

Having a feature film developed with my real life persona as a main character and being recruited to co-write the script.

Jeremy Ryan Vs. The Lamplighter... the shit gigs we'll look back on some day and laugh at. All around just me and Jeremy helping each other grow as writers and comics.

Performing the infamous "Arnie Rap" and "The Phat Rap" with my cousin and comedic partner in crime Abe Sullivan, aka "Professor Funk the Fifth" on radio in Calgary thanks to DJ Kev, who we met at the river bend as we did front flips into shallow water. Good times.
