Western Canada’s top stand up headliner – Richard Lett has worked with the best, from Robin Williams to Chris Rock. An accomplished actor, he has been featured on TV, film and radio, and in James Cameron’s “Dark Angel” and WB’s “Supernatural”. As a poet and playwright, Richard won the 2006 Vancouver “Dead Poet Slam” and received many awards for productions of some of his more than twenty plays.
He has three screenplays in development including “Jack Rabbit Parole”, “Last Laugh” and his latest about the adventures of a driver of escorts called “The Driver”. Richard’s solid hour of stand-up is peppered with hard hitting politics, insight into his own failings and struggles, clever takes on the smallest and most universal topics, and even some slam poetry. Constantly challenging the levels of what stand-up can be – this pioneer of stand-up must be seen and heard to believe.
With 15 years of performing comedy under this belt, it’s easy to see why the stage seems like such a natural environment to Brendan McKeigan. After performing and teaching improv for seven years, Brendan made the move to stand up comedy and has never looked back; Appearing on XM Satellite radio, Much More Music, Bite TV, and more. He has performed at the Sudbury Comedy Festival to sold out audiences and standing ovations three years in a row.
Brendan’s act also won him a performance at Montreal’s coveted Just For Laughs, “Homegrown Comic Competition,” where he received rave reviews from the audience and his peers alike. He is also the headliner and producer of the “Rise of the Comics Comedy Tour”, performing all across Canada.
Brendan’s intriguing high energy, laid back, free-flowing style with clever joke telling and creative analogies prove why he’s more observant than your creepy neighbour, why people are talking about this catapulting talent on the rise and why he isn’t the “next anyone”, he’s the first Brendan McKeigan.
