Shann Carr is the Executive Producer of The Moxie Studios Inc., a visionary company hoping to build a home for the burgeoning industry of gay entertainment production in Palm Springs, CA. Last year, The Moxie Studios produced several media-based events in Palm Springs including the first-ever Gay TV Week, a Gay Commercial-Making Contest, a New Year’s Eve multi-media bash, and a poolside laser experience at the Riviera Resort & Spa. The Land Cruise Tour is part of Moxie’s endeavor to create media-making momentum that builds Palm Springs’ reputation as the perfect work-play destination for professionals producing the next generation of gay entertainment.
With 26 years of exclusively gay standup experience at her hip, comedian Shann Carr weaves a storytelling style that makes you feel like you’re sitting in your living room with an eccentric friend who has your whole dinner party in stitches. She is taking her first break after cracking people up for 10 years at sea with the world’s largest travel company Atlantis Events. Over the years, Shann and The Moxie Studios have produced a series of live stand-up and TV comedy projects under the title “Out For Laughs,” including a docu-comedy film called “Out For Laughs-On The Ocean,” that follows three comedians, a drag queen, a piano player, and a hypnotist working together on a series of gay cruises with Atlantis. She also published a comic book called “You’re Going To Be Gay!” Shann lives in Palm Springs with her dogs Boris and Beckham who receive as much fan mail as she does.
