TuRae is Philadelphia's exception to the rule, that no one can be THAT funny. As one of today's fastest rising comedic talents. tuRae uses his brand of "Urban Realism" to bring audiences into his world, and uses his bright personality and quick wit to plunge into theirs. Starting his career at Philadelphia's temple University, TuRae quickly gained critical acclaim on campus & set his sights onthe stages beyond north Broad Street. Commanding laughs at various shows & competitions, he was referred to an open mic show by a fellow student. after performing at this first open mic comedy event, th club manager immediately signed upstart Turae to be the permanent host of the club! This 1999 Salem Orb E emerging artist will be one of the faces you will see on television, silver screen and the voice of reason to invade the radio. After all, his DUES have been "Paid-n-Full".
