The show was at Place des Arts – Salle Wilfrid Pelletier, a really classy venue not like the little run-down places that often host little show during the festival. The tickets were a bit expensive: $72.00/person, but so worth it!
The décor was an area rug, a chair with a sweatshirt on which read “Hello Friend”. He came on at 6pm, with his bottle of Evian. Right off the bat he almost got a standing ovation, to which he simply said: “Thank you but please, you didn’t pay to hear yourself clap”. And then he started…
What I thought of it: It was truly a fun time. His facial expressions, his timing (even if, he’s slower…) and his topics… wow! He really gave us two full hours of laughter. He has such a knack for story telling; the every day things become funny and his humour (very clean BTW, not one swear!) appeals to everyone at different times. The whole show was basically about his marriage and served as a warning for men out there.
My favorite scene/quote: A woman will use 3 expressions to adress her man, and with each he will know where he stands. She will use "Look!" or "Listen!" or "Bill!" - My vision became blurry because I was laughing so much, he's so right about that. Hubby "knows" when I call him by his name, so that was simply hilarious for me.
When he told the story about his grand-daughter’s adventure on the toilet “everybody poops” and his house description (wow! that sure sounded like a big house!)
I truly had a great time, and I’m so glad I got to see him live at least once. Because let’s face it, he’s not getting any younger and sadly, last night it showed.
I'll leave you with one of his quotes:
Let us now set forth one of the fundamental truths about marriage: the wife is in charge.
a wise man.
