From the September 11th Instagram post by Alex Mackenzie:

Its time!!! Less than a month until the Hungry for Laughs Comedy Tour kicks off starting in Kamloops! When I say this is a stacked show its an understatement. This is the best variety act on the planet!!

We have a stunt magician @stuntmagician who has been on Ellen, Americas Got Talent and even Fooled Penn and Teller in Las Vegas on the hit shoe Penn and Teller Fool us! And to top it all of we have one of the most impressive circus acts in the world with international foot archer @orissakelly! You may have seen her Win @robdyrdek Amazigness, on Britains got Talent and she had even performed for the late Queen of England!

Not only is this the best show on the planet but it also gives back to local charities in every city. We are donating to Food Banks, Womans Shelters, Mental Health Associations, Animal Shelters, Animal Food Banks and Hospice Societies. If you or anyone you know is in these cities please let them know we are coming!
