CRUMBS at the Fringe!

Welcome Ladies and Gentlemen,

The Winnipeg Fringe Festival is almost here, heck, maybe it is here by the time you are reading this.




CRUMBS performs the amazingly hilarious make'up improv comedy freestyle awesome show at the King's Head Pub upstairs. Ladies and Gentlemen, Stephen and Lee have been touring this show all over the world and people keep inviting them back for more. They have been touring and doing their shows with Dj Hunnicutt, who just happens to be an amazingly amazing Dj and he enhances the already awesome show to higher levels of awesome.

Then it is all over! But folks don't just line up like everyone else... buy your tickets in advance. The last few years people have been pretty pissed that they have lined up hours early and still were denied entry. We sell out fast folks, fast. So go online and get your tickets now, yes NOW.

Here is some information about the Fringe in Winnipeg.

#1 It is the best one in North America. It isn't the biggest (that distinction belongs to Edmonton's Fringe) but it is the best one. It has people who are really interested in seeing the shows and there really is a buzz in the city while the festival is going on. Winnipeg has a nice fountain while Edmonton has a waterpark inside their mall... Edmonton is always out bigging us.



#2 It is where you can see shows shows shows and more shows. Anyone can apply and anyone can get pulled in the lottery. That means you can see a show from a pro group and an amateur group. You can see a dance show from China or a real live play from England. You can see a local company perform an original work or a theatre company from America perform Shakespeare... You can see almost anything at almost anytime for a whole 12 days.


#3 People are around and Winnipeg feels like an actual city with an actual downtown with actual cultural life. This alone is worth seeing.

#4 CRUMBS puts on a show every night just for you. Seriously, it's just for you.

CRUMBS at the FRINGE (W'peg)


CRUMBS are in the Winnipeg Fringe again!
check it here
We actually have the record for the most produced shows in a row at the Winnipeg Fringe... I think its 12 years or something ridiculous like that.

We are again at the King's Head Pub (click here for map) and we are quite excited about that. We do a show every night upstairs and you will not only enjoy the hilarity of the show, but the quenching powers of the live drinks and the hunger battling power of the food. Air conditioned, easy to get to and the show kicks the ass of all other shows? This is a no brainer.

CRUMBS in Edmonton


Yes the non-linear CRUMBS tour blog gets updated again. I know that I am behind on my updates and still owe some european updates and posts, but CRUMBS are in fact in Edmonton right now so i thought that I would include this quick little post.

We have been dohttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifing the Improvanza here with Rapid Fire Theatre. Here is the link for the festival info.

Last night we did a theatresports show where CRUMBS played with 4track from NYC and we had The Gift of Gab open and close the show with some awesome Hip Hop tracks... very cool.

so Saturday night is the big show (the CRUMBS showcase show) where we once again show Edmonton why they love us (do they love us?). Show up at the Varscona theatre and watch the awesomes all this weekend.

CRUMBS in Wurzburg




Wurzburg is a city in Germany that nobody really knows, it isn't famous like Berlin or Hamburg or Frankfurt or Munich. But let me tell you, it is cool. It was massively bombed (during World War II dummy) and it is home to sooooo many German police (I think that they train cops here). Wurzburg is also home to the Cairo, which is a cool culture centre type thing. They have a couple of theatres and put on cool theatre shows and music shows and stuff like that. Wurzburg is also home to Die Kaktussen, an improv group, and run a festival every year in October. We like wurzburg.

We have been to Wurzburg many times and we (like mentioned above) like it. We did the show in the courtyard of the Cairo, which is completely cool (have I used the word cool too many times? if so, cool). The outdoor stage at the Cairo is a great place to rock a show, it looks great and many people end up showing up (over 200 souls). The show we did also did in fact rock.

p.s. I must at this moment tell all you readers that I am in fact in Regina right now doing a festival there. I am so behind on my blog posts (which I know must completely annoy all of those who are really expecting these updates to be up to date). I promise to try and catch myself up, but I must tell you that this blog isn't my #1 priority, it falls somewhere after breathing, eating, sleeping and everything else...
