Norm Alconcel, popularly known as “Big Norm” is a modern day renaissance man. Multi-faceted, Norm is by turns a stand-up comedian, singer, musical theatre performer, writer, producer, chef and co-host of the Extra Gravy Podcast. Norm’s soulful style of comedy is an amalgamation of life experiences and cultural perspectives gained through his time growing up in Toronto community housing, in a Filipino, Seventh-day Adventist household. His style showcases influences from Jamie Foxx, Russell Peters, Tracy Morgan, Cedric The Entertainer with a heavy sprinkle of Wu-Tang & Jodeci. Big Norm incorporates a hip-hop-flavoured and Motown-inspired cadence and delivery to his stand up and frequently touches base on multiculturalism, music, and personal anecdotes as a Filipino man in North America.
He has worked and performed all over the world and on many different platforms including Just For Laughs, Kevin Hart’s LOL Network, Roast Battles Canada, Fringe Festival, MTV, and more! A one man (stylish) machine of jokes, graphic design, event production, promotion, community and mentorship - the accomplished chef turned in-demand comedian is an essential ingredient to the success of an entire city.
