Comedy-goers will have a final chance to see the standup comedian as a headliner in Irvine on Oct. 9, before he heads out on a Canada tour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The winner of the 36th&nbsp;annual Seattle International Comedy Competition, Dino has appeared on ABC&#8217;s &#8220;Jimmy Kimmel Live!&#8221; and Comedy Central&#8217;s &#8220;Adam Devine&#8217;s House Party.&#8221; Backstage SoCal caught up with Dino for a Quick Q&amp;A:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Is comedy your passion or did you naturally fall into it? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dino:<\/strong> Both. My family is very funny so making people laugh was currency growing up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What qualities of other comedians do you most admire?&nbsp; <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dino:<\/strong> Originality and the willingness to take a risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Backstage SoCal has seen you do a mixture of personal stories, observations and absurd jokes on stage. What is your writing process like?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dino:<\/strong> It&#8217;s all three. I&#8217;ve also had a hard time sitting down at a coffee shop and writing pure jokes. Things will happen to me or I&#8217;ll see something and start laughing. I might mention it to another friend, usually a comic, and if we start laughing I know that&#8217;s something funny. Then I bring it to the crowd. Switching between those different styles of joke-telling keeps it fresh. Still, I want the show to be something you have to see and can&#8217;t categorize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Do you have any backstage routines?&nbsp; <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dino:<\/strong> I try to keep it pretty loose. I bring my Bluetooth speaker and some water; really exciting stuff. I like to party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/backstagesocal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/dino-2.jpg\" alt=\"dino\" class=\"wp-image-453\" srcset=\"https:\/\/backstagesocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/dino-2.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/backstagesocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/dino-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/backstagesocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/dino-2-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/backstagesocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/dino-2-1068x712.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/backstagesocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/dino-2-630x420.jpg 630w, https:\/\/backstagesocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/dino-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/backstagesocal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/dino-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What challenges do you face as a current comedian? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dino:<\/strong> You&#8217;re competing with the phone. We&#8217;re all addicted to it, so the show has to be good enough to make you forget about all the shit you can get to instantly on your phone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>When interviewing comedians, they often talk about &#8220;comedy breakthroughs&#8221; they&#8217;ve experienced in their career &#8211; basically when they realized they were funny. Have you experienced this &#8220;breakthrough?&#8221;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dino:<\/strong> Yes, I was a year into comedy. I did a show in my hometown, outside at a baseball stadium, at a Mixed Martial Arts festival in an Octagon to a thousand drunk pissed off people. They were mad because most of the fights had been cancelled, so they called my friend and I to do an impromptu show. And nobody likes a surprise comedy show, and they hated us. It was like the movie &#8216;Gladiator;&#8217; they heckled, threw things and oddly I wasn&#8217;t bothered in the least. I walked out of the Octagon and into the stands and did 25 minutes. I knew this was the life for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can you tell us a story of your most treasured career moment so far? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dino:<\/strong> Probably the Octagon outside show, but doing &#8216;Jimmy Kimmel Live!&#8217; was a really cool moment. Doing comedy on a late night talk show was always a goal of mine and being able to do that felt like an accomplishment. I was asked to do it so that felt even better than auditioning and Jimmy has a lot of respect for comedians. They bring the crowd into a separate room that looks just like a comedy club; my mom and best friends came. They said I had the biggest guest list to date (laughs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If you could sum up why people should come see you live, what would you say?&nbsp; <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dino:<\/strong> Because I need them to.&nbsp; Also, I&#8217;m a professional but still unknown so it will feel like discovering your new favorite band. It&#8217;s only $10 in advance. If that doesn&#8217;t sell you nothing will.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow Dino Archie on <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/DinoArchie\">Twitter<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.instagram.com\/dinothebeloved\">Instagram<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dino Archie<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Where:<\/strong> Irvine Improv,&nbsp;527 Spectrum Center Dr, Irvine<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>When:<\/strong> 8 p.m. Oct. 9<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Online:&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/irvine.improv.com\">irvine.improv.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fresno native funnyman Dino Archie has headlined and opened for popular comedians at the Brea and Irvine Improv venues throughout August and September.
