The Winnipeg Fringe!

With summer in Winnipeg comes the hot hot heat. No it isn't just a time for escape to the cabin or the beach. No it's not just a time of fighting mosquitoes and other pests. No it's not just a time to remember that it isn't winter. It is also a time of great improv and comedy. Live shows are not only a winter sport.


The Winnipeg Fringe Festival? What fringe shows should you really be getting excited about? Is the Fringe happening in Winnipeg July 13th - 24th?

CRUMBS
Every Night it's the same... It's Different!
(Every night at the King's Head pub at 8:45pm)

CRUMBS returns with the already sold-out run of already hilarious shows. It's crazy, the tickets aren't even on sale yet and they're sold out. It's ridiculous, the show hasn't even been created yet and it's already hilarious. A fully improvised show scored by DJ Hunnicutt and created by the power of imagination. All in the comfort of the King's Head Pub. Get your tickets early, because as we've already mentioned, they're already sold out.

Comedy Isn't Funny Anymore
Onstage at the Pantages Playhouse Theatre (Venue #4)

Comedy Isn't Funny Anymore is a post-modern take on 

the golden age of comedy.

Stephen Sim is funny. Caity Curtis is funny. They want you 

to laugh. More than that, they want you to laugh at the 

right parts of the show. How will you know when to 

laugh? How will you determine when the funny is 

happening? Is comedy even funny? Good luck, Audience 

People. 

These are two comedians. (CRUMBS, The Winnipeg 

Improv Festival, The Winnipeg Comedy Festival, The Big 

Stupid Improv Show, King’s Head Comedy Knights, The 

(Improvised) Bachelorette, Vancouver Sketchfest, TEDx 

Winnipeg, general international fame…)
