If the joke came from Dewayne Perkins, you best believe it’s going to be one to remember. The comedian, screenwriter, actor, and producer has us all cracking up with his standup shows, scene-stealing TV and film roles, and hilarious writing on The Amber Ruffin Show and in his own movie, 2022’s The Blackening. Hailing from Chicago, Illinois, Perkins’ comedy has been featured on Comedy Central, Logo, and Netflix. He wrapped his one man show How Being Black & Gay Made Me Better Than You to sold out crowds this year. He also appeared in the Emmy Award-winning comedy The Studio on Apple TV+, Netflix’s The Upshaws, and the Issa Rae-produced One of Them Days. Perkins keeps proving that he creates comedic excellence behind and in front of the camera.
