Madison House launched Madison House Speaks, a new speaker and comedy division, Jan. 31.

The Colorado-based management and booking agency’s new division will focus on public speaking events and “harnessing the power of the microphone to effect change,” according to a statement.

Its diverse roster consists of speakers from various backgrounds, from rappers such as Common to activists like 17-year-old Xiuhtezcatl, to comedians such as Lane Moore. Other clients include Chuck D, Peter Shapiro, Jodie Sweetin, Charles Phoenix, Gabi Moskowitz, Jamelle Bouie and many others.

Leading the new division is Madison House co-founder Nadia Prescher and agent Sean Lawton. They bring more than 20 years of experience to the endeavor.

“First of all, we want to give the unique voices on our roster a bigger platform for their messages,” Lawton and Prescher said in a statement. “Second, we want we want to create new speaking opportunities that don’t currently exist. And perhaps most importantly, we’d like to do a better job at connecting our artists with their fanbase. We think there is a tremendous amount of room for improvement there.”
