April 5-6. The high-energy, take-no-prisoners, comedy of ALEX PAVONE is not to be missed. A super-honest storyteller, Alex uses his Italian background and colourful acquaintances to weave a laugh-filled web of comic excitement.

Born and raised in Woodbridge, Ontario, Pavone has been making crowds laugh since 2007. Recently, Pavone opened for MAD-TV’s Bobby Lee, was a comedy panelist on MTV’s “Cocktales” and was featured on the bestselling YukYuk’s audiobook, “Road Warriors and Rarities.” But Alex Pavone needs to be seen to be believed. His is definitely a star on the rise.
