Alex Demers grew up hard in Massachusetts, got schooled in Theatre and English (what) at Skidmore College, where he was a member of the sketch troupe, “The Sketchies”, no, seriously, we were called “The Sketchies” — I know, seriously — then trucked it down to the BK, where he currently lives-the-dream large in BedStuy. He’s an actor and an improviser, performing with 4Squares and kicking it at The Magnet and UCB theatres old school when he’s not on the block with The New Deal. “Keep it real up in this piece.” (Phrase: (C) Alex Demers: 2003) |
