Who is Seth Payne?
Seth Payne is a sketch comedian in Greensboro, North Carolina, and one third of Hot Dog Tony, the trio he shares with A.J. Schraeder and Milly Mason. Their pieces usually open somewhere ordinary and familiar, then slide further and further into the strange, mixing absurd humour with a streak of social comment. The three often fold multimedia into the live show, and they turn up regularly on the Bizarro Box nights at Greensboro's Idiot Box Comedy Club. Payne and his partners have taken the work on the road too: members of the group have appeared at the sketch festivals of San Francisco, Chicago and Toronto. [1][2]
