BIO

Roderick Ferguson is a comedian-singer-actor-storyteller-activist, but really, who isn’t? Born and raised in Bermuda, Roderick moved to Boston and worked in software until the lure of the cabaret world proved too much to resist. This gateway drug soon led him to stand up comedy, to several years at the Provincetown Cabaretfest, to the 2017 St Louis Cabaret Conference, and eventually to the Neighborhood Playhouse School of Acting in NYC, where he now resides. Not in the school, but the city.

Roderick has performed his cabaret shows at Club Cafe in Boston, the Ocean State Theater Company and the Arctic Playhouse in RI, the Crown and Anchor in Provincetown, and Don’t Tell Mama in NYC. Roderick has performed stand-up and storytelling comedy shows in Boston at Nick’s Comedy Stop, The Comedy Studio, and in the LGBTQ showcase of the 2016 Women in Comedy Festival. Roderick also had a recurring comedy segment called Rod’s Proper Gander on New England Pride TV.

His latest show MAN OVERBOARD!!! is the hilarious, yet moving story of a comedian who fought for gay marriage in a small island nation.
