Read a new interview with King Rich Warren at ...
King Rich Warren has had one of the most non-traditional careers a performer could possibly have. He spent the first several years of his career living out of a beat up 1988 Nissan Sentra while travelling the United States staging everything from improvisational comedy shows to Shakespeare. His introduction to comedy came in the early '90s as a performer and emcee with Naked Comedy in Las Vegas. Later he would form his own theatrical company and continue to stage plays throughout the Southwest while also writing and directing TV commercials for McAlister Television. In 2004 he formed Baby Hippopotamus Productions in New York City and has since written and performed in productions of She Said Maybe, Abnormal Stew, Weasel Erotica and the Midtown International Theatre Festival selection The Broken Jump. Television appearances include episodes of Forensic Files, a Telly Award winning episode of The New Detectives and Sex & the City. Film credits include Manuel B. Ramirez III's recently released feature Six, The Interrogation (Zanadune Productions), The Professor's Ghost (Ginseng Films), From the Left, Uncivil Union and Jazzmyn Bank's upcoming feature Playing Doctor. While developing his own one-man show, King discovered the world of stand-up comedy and, being one to never shy away from a challenge, began to venture away from the world of independent theatre and deep into the world of the comic. He has two children, Derek and Ty, who mean the world to him and are the source of his smile. It's all about the Baby Hippopotamus!
