Funny man Derek Edwards will leave you laughing
Layne Greene launching second album at decoste centre
PICTOU, N.S. – From Vegas to St. John’s, Just For Laughs veteran Derek Edwards is universally considered to be among the comic elite.
Certainly, his peers think so, by the fact he’s a four-time nominee, and winner of
Best Standup
Comic – Canadian Comedy Awards, as well as a multiple
Gemini nominee for Best Performance in a Comedy.
And Rick Mercer has said, “Everyone knows Derek is the funniest man in Canada.”
Edwards will be at the decoste Performing Arts Centre Friday, Oct. 25 at 7:30 p.m.
“So Here's the Thing ...”, Edwards’s new 90-minute stand-up comedy show is a richly textured and enthralling “cut above,” delivered with pace and authority by the consummate Canadian comedian. Tickets to Edwards’s decoste show are $48.
LAYNE GREENE SECOND ALBUM LAUNCH
Saturday, Oct. 26
The name Layne Greene may be familiar to those around the Pictou County area, as he grew up in New Glasgow. However, the indie/folk musician has been referring to Kingston, Ont., as his home base of late, but he plans to make a return to the area in the near future.
Greene is kicking off his Nova Scotia show dates to support the release of his second album, Resolutions near his hometown at the decoste Performing Arts Centre in Pictou.
The show will be on Saturday, Oct. 26 at 7:30 p.m. The show will be opened by Halifaxbased band Sore Loser. Tickets for the Layne Greene show are $25, or $23 for members.
Tickets to all shows are available by contacting the decoste Box Office Monday to Friday between 11:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 902485-8848 or 1-800-353-5338, at 99 Water St., Pictou or by going online at decostecentre.ca.
