Carey Adkins
Carey is a delightful riddle wrapped in the conundrum of being both a comedian and a self-taught programmer. From cherishing his early days in the theater spotlight to creating digital videos with millions of views, he's a charmer wherever he goes. Carey is a founding member of the improv team, Fictionary, which performed in the decrepit basement of a restaurant. He skipped law school for that. A comedian for money and a data analyst for exposure, you'd never believe how good he looks on a motorcycle. Carey writes and produces sketches and shorts with his writing partner, but his real dream is to become the most recognizable co-star in the biz. Someone who makes you say "oh, yeah. That one guy." Carey performs every other month at The Pack Theater with his sketch team, Little French Boy.
Carey is repped commercially by Angela Murphy at BiCoastal Talent and Literary, and is seeking Theatrical representation.
