Michael Vincent
He's the up and comer of The Blacklist, hailing from Wagga Wagga in the Riverina of NSW.
Michael has been doing stand up for a few years now and his comedy is a mixed bag of personal experiences as a Dad, Husband and Indigenous Australian as well as observational yarns.
He first graced the stage at the Deadly Funny's (A National Indigenous Comedy Competition) called in 2009 but after spending a few years working on his craft, he came back bigger and better and became a Deadly Funny National Finalist in 2017.
He frequents the stage at the Riverina Comedy Club and recently performed alongside Sean Choolburra during "Blackout Comedy Show" in 2017.
To add to Michael's list of achievements, in 2018 he became ACT RAW Comedy Finalist and has performed in Melbourne, Sydney, Dubbo, Canberra and anywhere you care to put a mic and a spotlight.
With 60,000 years of storytelling in his blood, Michael works insanely hard for his community but it's OK, you don't have to be black to laugh.
Growing Up Black
Growing Up Black is aimed at First Nations People across Australia, we want to unearth what our people do in community.
First Nations People live very diverse lifestyles in many different communities and have just as many stories to share with Australia and beyond. Those stories have evolved over thousands of years and have as much relevance today, with stories from our past, now, and moving forward into the future.
Growing Up Black speaks with First Nations People who have shaped our past and those who will be shaping our future in Sport, Medicine, Science, Trades, Retail and Education.
