Winston Spear is a unique comedian with a deep deadpan
delivery who has been called the King of the Obscure. Although his slightly
disturbed sensibility makes him a sure-fire hit, there is a certain charisma
that endears Winston Spear to audiences when he performs. He is a regular cast
member and staff writer on CTV and The Comedy Network's hit sketch show Comedy
Inc., now in its fifth season.
Winner of the Canadian Comedy Award for Best Stand-up Comic in 2003, Winston Spear has
been performing in comedy clubs and festivals throughout North America for more
than a decade. In fact, comedy once took him to the United Arab Emirates to
perform. He's appeared a number of times at the Just For Laughs Festival in
Montreal, the Vancouver International Comedy Festival, and the Halifax Comedy
Festival. Winston refers to his ability to incorporate physical comedy into his
act as "comedic modern dance." One of his dance pieces has become a top video on
YouTube and Google Videos resulting in an appearance in the Barenaked Ladies
video "The Sound of Your Voice" which premiered on YouTube.
Winston Spear's experience extends into a variety of television and film projects. He
has been featured on Comedy Now!, Comics!, Open Mike with Mike Bullard and, with
his sketch troupe Lame & Shooster, on SketchCom. Winston has also written and
performed his own video shorts entitled Crack Doll House being featured on
sketch series The Bobroom on The Comedy Network. Winston has also been a guest
star on CBC's long running Air Farce, The Holmes Show, as Winston the Cellar
Dweller on the 6-part series The Sean Cullen Show and on Toronto 1's The Toronto
Show.
