After a summer of wildfires, drought and high grocery prices, it鈥檚 time for a laugh.
This fall Train Wreck Comedy has paired up with the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) for a night of fun with a heartfelt touch behind it.
The train will be pulling into Vernon, Penticton and Kamloops this month for the extraordinary comedy event featuring the larger-than-life comedian, Big Daddy Tazz, known fondly as the Bipolar Buddha.
Train Wreck Comedy鈥檚 Rob Balsdon said Tazz has headlined everything from a centenarian鈥檚 birthday bash to a biker initiation.
鈥淭azz鈥檚 personal journey has been one of triumph over challenges. After embracing his identity as a manic-depressive, attention-deficit, socially anxious dyslexic, he harnessed his conditions to become a mental health champion,鈥� said Balsdon.
Whether commanding fundraisers, corporate events, festivals, or television appearances, he seems to leave audiences in stitches, said Balsdon. This year, he was honoured with the John Candy Award for his exceptional contributions to comedy and mental health advocacy.
鈥淚f laughter鈥檚 the cure, this show is the doctor鈥檚 orders,鈥� said Balsdon. 鈥淏ig Daddy Tazz is the comic remedy you鈥檝e been waiting for, guaranteed laughs from start to cure-all finish.鈥�
Train Wreck Comedy Cares will be in Kamloops on Sept. 21 at the Paramount Theatre, in Vernon on Sept. 22 at the Towne Theatre and in Penticton on Sept. 23 at the Cleland Theatre.
