Welcome to PLAYHOUSE
JUSTICE SCRANTON
In 2017, Justin Scranton began his comedy career in his mid-forties while juggling a family and a corporate job. The results have been wildly marginal. His midlife crisis turned comedy earned him the title of North Carolina’s Funniest Person in 2021 and has taken him all over the country to perform. Scranton has also worked with a wide array of comics including Jeff Arcuri, Nick Mullen, and Tom Mabe.
Alongside fellow comedian Shane Smith, Scranton hosted the award-winning podcast Conspiracy Beer Me (a.k.a. Weird Science Pod), where the pair drink beer and talk about the paranormal.
On stage, Scranton’s comedic musings wander through his life as a father and husband with long pauses to worry about getting old and managing his mental health. Equal parts dark and silly, Scranton draws inspiration from every corner of life.
In 2023, he joined forces with Mark Brady (Hummy’s VR Comedy, Sirius XM) to form the Bad Dad’s Comedy Tour. Together, Brady and Scranton have delighted audiences across the Southeast with their two-headliner show.
