Meet Laughing Viking:
Joe 'Lars' Larsen
In 2009 I found myself in London, Ontario Canada, 8 years into a corporate career with a nagging knowing that I wasn't following my dreams.
I made a decision to start a life on stage and film as an actor, comedian and creator.
First, I answered a Craiglist titled "So You Wanna Be a Comedian?", resulting in an exhilarating standup debut at YukYuks amateur night.
Three months later I was the warmup act for comedy talk show "London Tonight with Jeff Leeson" which expanded to writer, announcer, producer and standup tour opener for Jeff.
In 2012, I moved to Toronto for more standup opportunities started working in TV & Film.
Some Highlights So Far:
- Working with Jason Momoa on his epic series "SEE" (APPLE+)
-
5 episodes as "Lou The Main Man" on Oh Yuck! (NETFLIX)
-
20 episodes on sketch comedy show Almost Genius (CMT CANADA)
-
Lead role in Fear Thy Neighbor (DISCOVERY)
- Recording my debut standup album 'Silly Goose' in my hometown Orillia, ON.
