New York comedian from Halifax also airing new standup special
TRURO, N.S. — Hanging out in an oversized suit his character borrowed for a funeral, comedian Nathan Macintosh is thrilled to be “Trapped” again in Truro for season 2 of his series.
Growing up in Halifax, money was always a problem for Macintosh and his single mother. He learned money sense early on and eventually realized he needed to use it as a tool – not an obstacle. One clip of him joking about how pilots deserve more money has been reposted thousands of times with pilots layering the audio over clips of themselves landing planes.
The show is directed by Jonathan Torrens, who also acts. Other special actors this season include comedian Dave Merheje and – who Macintosh calls an “East Coast hero” – comedian Nikki Payne. Canadian Content Studio is run by Torrens and Beirnes, with many of the crew members having connections to the province.
"One of the nice things about shooting in a town this size is if you're shooting in Toronto, people are annoyed and jaded, but Truro ... we were shooting in Macquarie's yesterday and people are like, 'oh, this is cool, what are you guys doing?' There's no cynicism.”
