The downtown London's venue Adonis Cabaret Comedy Club, filled with laughter when stand-up comedian/actor CeCe Mor took the stage at All Star Comedy Jam. Poking fun at his friends, family and even at himself, the comedian gave a strong performance and was continuously hilarious from start to finish.
The burgeoning comedy scene in the United Kingdom has given birth to many great comedians across the country. With many of comedy's top acts migrating to the capital city it is perhaps no wonder that London and the neighboring county of Essex are home to some of the best comedy clubs in the country.
Before his performance, Vibery Magazine sat down with Mor and his manager and interviewed him on how he got his start in comedy, balancing his work/life, his comedic role models and what projects he has lined up.
The comedian was extremely personable and down to earth and equally funny onstage.
We are here at Adonis Cabaret with CeCe Mor.
So, I read that you quit your job as a High Tech worker to pursue comedy. Can you tell me more about that?
Yes, yes I did. I was a successful Salesperson, one of the best in the business. I could break down anything about a computer: Internet, etc., those are the things that I'm educated on.
When I decided not to take that career any further, I said you know what, let me branch off into stand up comedy. The reason why, because I can go far in that, said I'm not going to go that much further selling computers because I know everything there is to know. At this point, I was a guru. I was going to work for Yahoo but then said I don't wanna do it, let me start doing comedy. Did some amateur nights, once I did amateur nights, quit my job instantly and said this is what it is, this is what I want to do - told my ex-wife to supported me, put me on her back and said , "OK babe, if this is what you want to do, I want you to do it to the best of your ability," and I did. Long story short, got successful, things started to happen right after.
