My mom is from Ghana, and my dad is from the States, so even in my family when I was growing up, my mom said I was the American one, and my dad said I was the weird African one. Sam Richardson Read Quote
Performing in Detroit or performing in Chicago, you’re on your own turf, but when you tour a show, the audiences change. You’re in a completely different space; sensibilities change. I think I learned a lot from doing that – how written material works in different places, learning to have confidence, learning the idea of how to be adaptable. Sam Richardson Read Quote
I think everybody, from whatever town they’re from, knows their hometown commercials. Sam Richardson Read Quote
I grew up watching ‘Ghostbusters.’ I loved that movie before I knew it was a comedy! As a kid, I lived between Ghana and Detroit and in Ghana for, like, first and second grade. And I had a VHS tape of that, and I would watch it every day. It’s kind of like why I got into comedy. Sam Richardson Read Quote
