It was my pleasure to attend the inaugural live taping of The Swift Show.  The Swift Show is Atlanta’s Premiere LIVE Late Night Talk Show.  It is produced and hosted by actor, comedian, philanthropist Anthony “Swift” Rice.   It was filmed at the Porter Sanford III Performing Arts & Community Center in Decatur, Ga.  and was standing room only.

Entertainment included:  host (Swift), a live house band (Improv), celebrity guest (DeWayne Boyd), singer (@HendricksNoJimi), Spoken Word Poetry (Dichotomy), improv comedy skits and more!

The show opened up with an awesome LIVE musical intro from the house band Improv.  The host Anthony “Swift” Rice delivered a hilarious monologue that let us know that we would be in for a fun night!  It was really cool that his good friend Thomas Mikal Ford aka Tommy Strong from the television series Martin was in the house to lend his classic outbursts of laughter.  He wasn’t the only one laughing.  The entire place was filled with laughter all night.

Actor DeWayne Boyd was the celebrity guest for the evening.  You may remember him from Allegiant.  Swift interviewed DeWayne as he talked about his mentorship under the great Robert Townsend and his acting school, DeWayne Boyds Premier Actors Network.

We got to see a hilarious movie short created by Swift and friends.  A comedy troupe performed impromptu skits that had us on the floor crying.  The spoken word artist Dichotomy was amazing and very engaging with his poem about why he hates musicians. The entire show was fun and very interactive.  An added bonus was hearing about all of the things that Anthony Rice does for his community.  He works with kids through his organization Black Top Circus teaching them how to express themselves through art and improv.  You can see in this hilarious video that he is serious about the kids.

The Swift Show is a REAL talk show.  Overall it was just as good as anything on TV right now.  Since it was filmed Live I am sure that it will be airing soon on a network near you.  When I get more detail I will let you know.  I appreciate the shouts that The Swift Show announcer gave to TheSistahCafe.com as well as Meko Roberts, the promoter that invited me out.  I hope to be in attendance for the next episode of The Swift Show and if I am, you can be sure to hear about it here first at TheSistahCafe.com so STAY TUNED!
