Headliner
Simon King completely changes a room when he takes the stage. Aggressive, truly insightful and possessing a unique explosive delivery all his own he bombards the audience with intelligent and flat out hilarious material at break neck speed. This coupled with his ability to seamlessly insert characters, impressions and improvisation means he’s unlike anything else in the stand up comedy world.
Middle Act
Kate Belton is a writer, comedian, animal lover and person who gets weirdly riled up about gas prices for someone her age. Hailing from rural Ontario, Kate is a middle child (draw your own conclusions) who lights up the stage with her quick wit. Kate’s style of comedy is a mix of story telling to observational quips and much to the dismay of her parents, she’s probably never going to stop thinking accidental public farts are funny. Kate started performing stand-up in Vancouver, and was quickly fast-tracked by Yuk Yuk’s Vancouver. Since taking the stage for the first time in 2016, she has performed all over the lower mainland and across Canada.
Host
Alex Mackenzie is a comedian from British Columbia who has been writing and performing comedy for over 5 years. He quit his six-figure job and is now a national touring comedian who has been featured on CBC National, The Okanagan Comedy Festival and the Kamloops Komedy Festival. His comedy touches on many relatable topics that the audience can connect with that range from relationships, family, social commentary and observations about life. Alex’s comedy provides something for everyone and will leave you inspired and viewing your life as well as the world through a new lens.
