CRUMBS thanks y'all

Thanks to everyone who showed up for the CRUMBS show on Feb 22nd. The stand-ups killed it and the improv was beautiful (if we do say so ourselves). So who won the battle for comedic victory? Was is the rapid fire polished jokes of the stand-up comics? Was it the smooth hilarious narratives of the improv? It was the audience who won, the audience always wins.

 Thanks to Leif for doing his musical music thing for the show.

Thanks to Ben "Old Ball Coach" Walker for being the Dodge Neon of comedy.

Thanks to John B Duff for kicking Cancer in the ass!

Thanks to Dan "Mad Genius" Robertson for drinking the "Pirate Lemonade".

Thanks to Paul "Baby Face" Rabliauskas for being like a VHS tape.


So now what? So what shows are coming up next? Well let me tell you...

CRUMBS Improv Vs Stand-Up

CRUMBS would love love love to see you all at the Gas Station Theatre for the upcoming show/party that CRUMBS is putting together on Sat, Feb 22nd.

Buy ticket online NOW!

The show will not only feature the improv you have grown to love and expect, we've also invited some of Winnipeg's stand-up comics to give you a taste of some comedy told standing up and into a mic. We're also going to have the musical wizardry of Leif (who is known for his musicianship with Outside Joke and The D&D Improv Show).

Wait, don't all the improvisers and the stand-up comics always feud about who is the better/best comedic art form?


Well, this upcoming show at the Gas Station Arts Centre is kind of like this small excerpt from a little skit:


Bill- "Hey, you got your stand-up in my improv!"

Bob- "Hey, you got your improv all over my stand-up!"

Bill & Bob- "This combo tastes HILARIOUS!!!"


The first half of the show will feature the stand-up comics telling jokes into a microphone. You'll enjoy the Stand-Up mic telling comedy stylings of such comics of:

 Ben "Old Ball Coach" Walker

John "B" Duff

Dan "Sciency" Robertson

Paul "Rabs" Rabliauskas

Enjoy!


Plus... as a bonus... a weekly bonus... an audio bonus for your ears... be sure to tune into the CRUMBS radio show every single Monday at 5pm CST on 101.5 UMFM.

What else is going on #1

Well. CRUMBS also has a show this Tuesday at the King's Head as part of the weekly comedy shows that happen there FOR FREE!

This Tuesday we have a very special guest. Mr Stephen Eric McIntyre will be joining us onstage. He is one of the godfathers of improv in Winnipeg, practically having to invent improv himself because back when he started doing it, barely anyone knew how to do it.

He's also the star of TV and FILM! He's a real actor!

Here's the Facebook EVENT

Here's Stephen Eric McIntyre's IMDB page



What else is going on #2

Well, Well, Stephen Sim will be hosting an Oscar party as part of the Winnipeg Film Group's fundraiser. It will be on Sunday, March 2nd (the same time as the Oscars... duh!). The Oscars will be broadcast live on a big screen and there will be a red carpet and prizes and food and drink. All of your favourite things.

What else is going on #3

Well, Well Well. The Winnipeg Comedy Festival is coming up in April and while Lee is away touring the CRUMBS banner across Europe, Stephen will be representing. He'll not only be introducing all the shows at the Gas Station Theatre, he'll also be hosting and performing in the improv show being presented on Tuesday, April 8th. The show is called "Doctor Whom & and Lords of Improv" which is a nerd-a-rific send up celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Sci-Fi classic Dr Who. The show will feature players from the CBC radio show The Irrelevant Show, which means that Winnipeg will see Mark Meer (known globally not only for his amazing improv skills but as the voice of Commander Shepard of the Mass Effect video game... we did say nerd-a-rific).

CRUMBS at the King's Head

CRUMBS is again doing the FREE LAUGHS comedy series at the King's Head pub on Tuesdays.
As you may know (or should know) every single Tuesday night at 9pm there is a comedy show at the King's Head and this comedy show just happens to be the best darned comedy show that the city has to offer. The show rotates between:

1st TUE
CRUMBS with DJ Hunnicutt and the World Class improv that has been blowing minds across the globe for years and years and years... You know it, you love it, you need it.

2nd TUE
Comedy Loser with Ryan McMahon, which is the solo comedy stylings of monologues and characters, multi-media and video... very cool show.

3rd TUE
CRUMBS & Friends also with DJ Hunnicutt, this time more of a jam show that has CRUMBS doing improv with very special guests.

4th TUE
Shitz 'N Gigglez, the Stand-up comedy show hosted by John B Duff. Canada's next top comics give you the love on the mic in that classic comedy way.


Folks...



So c'mon down to the King's Head and let the FREE LAUGHS warm you as you hang out with good people, drink fine beverages and munch on fine foods. It is always a good time and it is the best live comedy the city has to offer.
