I’m a stand up comic born in Baltimore, Maryland, and raised in Dallas, Tx. I’ve been doing stand-up comedy since about 2022.
TFAIYo, Aaron, wassup! lol Thanks for taking sometime to chat virtually with us! When we launched these interviews one of the first comedians we thought about was you. You came alllll the way out to Forney, Tx just to participate in our pilot episode and we thank you! Well enough from us, how things been??!
Aaron Cherry
I’ve been doing well! Started a new job a month or so ago, and just been taking it one show at a time.
TFAIWhere did you grow up, and how did it shape your humor?
Aaron Cherry
I went to grade school and high school in Lewisville, Tx. I think what shaped my humor the most was the fact my mom let me watch stand up specials when I got home. It just made me want to do it more.
TFAIHow has your comedy evolved over the years?
Aaron Cherry
Hopefully it’s gotten better, but you’d have to ask people that seen me. I would say that I’ve gained a lot more confidence in stage, and I’ve honed the ability to adapt. That’s what I’d say I’m the most proud of.
TFAIWhat comedy special changed your life?
Aaron Cherry
Eddie Griffin: You Can Tell Em I Said It (2011)
TFAIWhat's the toughest crowd you've ever faced?
Aaron Cherry
It was at a sushi bar in Euless. I still get mad when I drive by it.
TFAIWhat's your pre-show ritual?
Aaron Cherry
Have one drink and write my set by bullet point.
TFAIWhat do people not know about you that would surprise them?
Aaron Cherry
I would consider myself to be a very emotional person but that’s not something really noticed in my material.
TFAIWhat's next for you?
Aaron Cherry
I’ll be at Big Laugh April 17th. That’s my next club show, but I have a slew of independently produced shows coming up you can peep on my IG. Also feel free to check out Play The 5ive on YouTube.
