Just for Laughs

TAKE TWO OF THESE… AND CALL US IN THE MORNING!

Fest faves and international stars Danny Bhoy and Jimmy Carr return with LAUGHTER THERAPY and WANDERLUST at the Gesu as part of "One Person Show Series"

MONTREAL, April 13, 2011 – Montrealers are about to get a check-up they will never forget, and a double-dose of their own medicine. Take your shoes off, say hello to the bitter receptionist, drop your pants and wait for the doctors to see you.

Back for a third time in Montreal after two previous hit sold-out shows DANNY BHOY will perform his new show WANDERLUST at the GESU. The show features the mesmerizing anecdotes and quick-fire wit that this globetrotting Scot is renowned for, performed with the charm, charisma and likeability that has made him a global comedy smash. And did we mention ALL NEW MATERIAL? Well, we did now…

Since the turn of the century, JIMMY CARR has been a “Fun Slinger” (what a great title!) of international repute. We’re ecstatic to have him back in Montreal for the North American premiere of his new show LAUGHTER THERAPY, which has been selling out all over the UK. Known for, among other talents, his one-liners with a nasty edge, JIMMY CARR is an international comedy star, social media king, Festival favourite and Montreal staple.

Also at the GESU, LAUGHTER THERAPY has been described as “an evening of non-stop jokes, gags and banter.” If you’ve got a sick sense of humour then Jimmy is the best medicine. Not to be taken if you have a sensitive disposition or an overactive moral compass.

Two men. Two one-man shows.

Conveniently scheduled so everyone can see them both.

At least once.
