DEREK ADAMS
Derek Adams is a stand up comedian and showrunner in Toronto.
A comedy prodigy, Adams performed his first tight five at just 5 years old, bringing down the house with his signature bit about how brown Mr. Sketch scented markers smell like poo.
Originally from Calgary, Adams moved to Toronto in 2017 in search of fame and fortune. And it worked perfectly! That is of course why you recognized the name Derek Adams and immediately thought about how funny his bit about Mr. Sketch markers is and how it really holds up well and good.
