These Sarasota Icons Have Done It All … Through Laughter – with Pam & Les McCurdy, McCurdy’s Comedy Theatre | Episode 119

Anyone who's a fan of local comedy already knows about McCurdy's Comedy Theatre on Ringing BLVD in downtown Sarasota.

But what I didn't know until recently is that only one of the dynamic husband-wife team who started McCurdy's over 35 years ago, actually wanted to be in the comedy business.

I'm excited to welcome Pam & Les McCurdy of McCurdy's Comedy Theatre.

In this episode, you'll learn ...

  • One thing most people don't know about the McCurdy's
  • Why running a comedy club isn't all jokes & giggles
  • The undiscovered McCurdy comedians who went on to become household names
  • Why the incredible Humor Institute is something you might want to try for yourself
  • The special way Pam & Les help the mentally challenged through the O'laughics
  • What they're excited about
  • and much ... much ... more!

Thank you for stopping by today as it is my hope you will listen, learn, laugh and connect!

Here's a TED Talk about Spby Les you've got the hear.

But who are the people who live here that make this town such a wonderful place to live? Sarasota Stories aims to find out. I interview local leaders, influencers, and creators to discover what makes them tick, why they live here, what they're working on, and where they are going.
