SUMMARY:Derek Edwards - Oxy Moron
DESCRIPTION:89.9 The Wave presents Derek Edwards – Oxy Moron at the Rebecca Cohn. \nEvery few millennia\, a comic emerges\, born from the cosmic soup of fate and time\, jostled by the gales of change onto the unpredictable shores of comedic brilliance. This is a man who embodies pluck and wit\, lighthearted yet encumbered\, and a naivete that somehow remains endearing. As Derek says: In the grand contest of life\, he stands proudly as a bona fide “participant.” \nWell … truth be told\, there’s a lot more to it than that. From Vegas to St. John’s\, this Just For Laughs veteran is universally considered to be among the comic elite. Certainly his peers think so\, as evidenced by the fact that 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. As Rick Mercer says\, “Everyone knows Derek is the funniest man in Canada.”  \nClearly the critics agree: “5 STARS – the funniest man on earth” – Winnipeg Free Press; “4 STARS – the crowd howled” – Victoria Times Colonist; “still the funniest man in Canada” – Toronto Sun; “Edwards reigns as the King of Canadian comedy” – Charlottetown Guardian; “Derek Edwards is hysterical” – Calgary Sun; “Edwards takes stand-up to next stage” – Georgia Straight; “the epitome of timing & storytelling” – Halifax Chronicle Herald; “the comedian’s comedian” – London Free Press.  \nSo come on out and join Derek for his latest show\, Oxy Moron\, as it makes its way across Canada. Expect a night of perceptive guesswork and charmingly misguided jabs from a cherished performer. Enjoy some hearty laughs\, a sprinkling of wisdom\, and the pleasure of mingling with fellow humans. It’s a triple win! \nTickets On Sale Now at Dalhousie Arts Centre  \nFor more info\, pics & comedy clips\, visit www.shantero.com \n
