The Second Inductee into The Comedy Green Room's "Hall Of Fame" is Mr. Kenny Robinson


Kenny is a legend in Canadian Comedy, he has toured from one end of Canada to the other entertaining audiences since the 1980's. For thirty years he has produced and hosted the Nubian Comedy Revue. Many Canadian and American Comedy Stars have cut their teeth on this show..


Mr. Robinson has toured throughout Canada, the USA, the UK and South Africa.. Kenny says; "Political Comedy is my CRACK and I think I do it as well as ANYONE in the country. My act is a bit on the extreme side, so audiences have been about the same wherever I perform. 85% Digging ME...15% HATING ME." Kenny Robinson's ability to walk full rooms has become folklore in the Canadian Comedy Community."

Kenny and I have been friends of over 41 years, we first bonded over our mutual love of Jazz and Blues and comedy. He is a mentor to me and hundreds of other Canadian Comics. Most importantly Kenny is a loyal friend who I consider part of my family.

I first met Paul Adams through his father, comedy writer Charlie Adams. Charlie was the first UK comic on The Comedy Green Room dot com. Charlie suggested I check out his son, stand-up comic Paul Adams.


We hit it off and Paul was invited to perform at The HogTown Comedy Festival (TM) in Toronto ON Canada. Paul decided to move to Toronto and performed in comedy clubs and bars throughout Canada and the USA for about 2 years. Paul's clean and funny comedy style was a refreshing change to the Toronto Comedy Community from 2004 to 2006.


Mr. Paul Adams new book Diary of a Locked Down Comedian is a funny, charming, and insightful look into his pandemic experience. Check it out!
