Description

Award-winning comedian Leif Oleson-Cormack pushes confessional stand-up to its limits in this show about a methodically moronic plan to double-down on unrequited love through a disastrous trip to Disneyland. Featuring criminal acts, surgically altered sugar daddies, Sinatra impersonators and a cynically-charged "coming out", this (unfortunately) true story is not to be missed. 'Leif Oleson-Cormack shows how two things – storytelling skill and pure fearlessness – can make for truly captivating theatre' ****½ (Edmonton Journal). 'Leif Oleson-Cormack shows us where the future of stand-up comedy should lie' (View Magazine, Hamilton).

It is really rare that I am able to sit and focus on just a person talking about one thing for an hour, but Leif delivers his story in such a compelling and funny way that I was hanging on every word waiting to hear what came next. I would love to see this turned into a play or short film. It is a really captivating, funny, and surprising story, well told.
