From the May 24th Instagram post by Savio Joseph:

I still remember doing my very first theatre show almost ten years ago. No big crew, no real plan—just a bunch of us figuring it out as we went, and a room full of friends and family who believed in me way before anyone else did.

Fast forward to now… and I’m going on tour. Like, actual cross-Canada, coast-to-coast tour.

The team’s a little bigger now, the vision’s a little stronger—and we couldn’t be more excited to bring this to life.

This is an independently produced tour, built show by show, city by city. And now we’re taking it across the country.

#TurnBackTuesday: Never play chicken with a magician [from Reddit]

From the October 28th Reddit post "TIFU by challenging a magician to a game of chicken": 

This happened when I was a young man of about 19-20. The distant past of the early 2010s. An important thing about me back then (and still now) is that I didn't really ever consider the consequences of my actions. If something sounded like it would be funny, as a rule, I would generally just do it and hope for the best.

I was attending university in Canada and there was a campus event where comedy magician Wes Barker was performing at the campus pub.
