THE SNOWED IN COMEDY TOUR
The Snowed In Comedy Tour has turned into a Canadian success story, celebrating its fifteenth year. It has now grown to become the biggest comedy tour in Canada. Playing in 70 cities this year, coast to coast. In a market still dominated by American acts, with American TV credits, a small Canadian comedy tour has managed to succeed. Like the Tragically Hip they have done it by touring and making more and more people laugh, year after year. The tour has now performed in Australia, The US, France, and Switzerland. The tour has received numerous standing ovations.
Four international comedians come together to create one amazing show with each bringing a unique and hilarious take providing something for everyone.
