About
Darren Sanders is a comedian for hire in Central Coast, NSW.
Darren Sanders has spent three decades in comedy, and the CV covers most of what an Australian comic can do. He hosted his own late night chat show, The Darren Sanders Show, which ran nationally on the Nine Network's GO Channel and Foxtel in Australia and New Zealand from 2012 to 2017. Stand-up spots on In Melbourne Tonight, Rove Live, The Russell Gilbert Show and Stand Up Australia, plus panel time on Studio 10 and The B-Team. He's also turned up in films and TV drama. Live, the set moves between comedy, spoken word poetry, ukulele covers and vocals, and he'll host the whole night as MC if you need that too. All he needs on the day is a microphone. Based on the Central Coast, NSW.
Watch
The show
Comedy is the backbone, but it isn't the whole night. Darren moves between stand-up, spoken word and vocals, and the energy stays up throughout. That mix is unusual, and it means a room that's had a long day of speeches gets something more varied than a straight comic set. He'll host as well, so one person can carry the whole running order.
On the day
The venue side covers sound, lighting and staging. So you'll want a PA already in place, or hired in, along with lights and somewhere raised for him to work from.
Performance options
Four things to pick from, in any combination. A comedy performance. MC and hosting duties across your event. A spoken word poetry set. Or a set of ukulele covers.
