School teacher turned Comedian...

My name is Dr. Dashia Magee. I’m a Black writer, actress, and professional clown based in Los Angeles. I started performing at the age of 4, gracing the stage as a "Strawberry" at the local community theatre in Tacoma, Washington. After living all around the United States (California, Iowa, New Jersey, and Minnesota) my family relocated to Los Angeles. I’ve performed my one-woman clown and character show, “Donkey: A Cultural Biography of A Public School Teacher” for the Black Women in Comedy Festival and at Upright Citizen Brigade in Los Angeles. I also co-wrote and starred in a web series, “Staying Together”  (www.stayingtogethercomedy.com), played my one and only slave in “#TMI”, played a witch in “Pick a Card”, and wrote and shot, “Dr. Magee: Clown Shorts”. You can also find me performing live at various theaters in Los Angeles.
