Warning: these comedians could change the colour of the snow under any audience to yellow.
Dan Quinn, Pete Zedlacher, Craig Campbell and Paul Myrehaug are causing crowds to pee themselves all over B.C. and Prince George is on their list.
The four jesters are on their annual Snowed In Comedy Tour and it stops in at the P.G. Playhouse on Jan. 7. (They also perform in Quesnel on Jan. 8.)
"Snowed In Comedy Tour has turned in to a Canadian success story," said tour organizers. "In a market still dominated by American acts with American TV credits, a small Canadian comedy tour has managed to succeed. It has now grown to become one of the largest comedy tours in Canada. Four international comedians come together to create one amazing show with each bringing a unique and hilarious take providing something for everyone."
The comedians have a habit of skiing or snowboarding at the various mountains near to their shows, injecting that much more into each local economy they visit. It's Canada, so if you're going to play, you've got to do it in the snow.
Dan Quinn has opened for Russell Peters, Tracy Morgan, Rob Schneider, Bob Saget and Tom Green. He is the winner of The Canadian Comedy Competition at Just for Laughs. He was chosen Best of the Fest at both the Moncton Comedy Festival and Vancouver Comedy Festival. He has been seen on CBC, CTV and the Comedy Network and heard on XM Radio. He has a bestseller DVD called The Stuff I Wanted To Say and he has an album on iTunes called The Best of the Snowed In Comedy Tour.
Pete Zedlacher is an eight-time performer at Just For Laughs. He has five Canadian Comedy Award nominations, one of them for the win. He has also been nominated for a pair of Gemini Awards.
Recently he won Sirius XM's nationwide comedy competition, earning him the title of Sirius XM's Top Comic. He is a regular on The Debaters and he is an actor and writer on a long list of television shows - everything from Little Mosque On the Prairie to The Ron James Show to Puppets Who Kill and is the co-host of the heavy metal show Loud on MuchMusic.
Paul Myrehaug is another regular with Just For Laughs, on The Debaters and at festivals all over the world. He took home the $25,000 top prize on the Comedy Network show The Great Canadian Laugh-Off. He took second at the Seattle International Comedy Competitin and was a finalist for the Boston International Comedy Competition.
Craig Campbell is another of Canada's busier comedians. Some of the highlights of the last couple years include being nominated Best Headliner at The Chortle Awards, he supported Frankie Boyle on his 120-date nationwide tour, finished his own nationwide solo tour - Craig Campbell Live - and performed on Dave's One Night Stand, Russell Howard's Good News and Michael MacIntyre's Comedy Roadshow on the BBC. He was the co-host of Ed's Night Party with Ed The Sock, and he has appeared alongside Rich Hall, Dennis Miller and Jim Carrey during his international career.
