Check out the results of my promotional photoshoot with Ron Josol for RICE – Asian Comedy Showcase. Ron Josol is such an amazingly talented comedian, and he really knew how to vary up his facial expressions.

The fabulous David Arnold help take the photos and I did the editing. So many photos to choose from with tons of variety. Can’t wait to get these photos on the poster and other promotional items!

First time using our new backdrop. The last backdrop was made of vinyl and was super wrinkly and way too shiny, which kinda ruined the video and photos. I’m so excited by this new backdrop; it had no wrinkles at all and was a great exture for photos.

Calm before the storm. All our tables are set up and ready to go before the show starts. Doors opening soon!

Love the view from the stage on to the audience. Rivoli is definitely one of the best venues in the entire city. Super fortunate to get to work with such an amazing venue and everyone who works there including Serge and JP.

Ted Morris kicked off the show with an amazing set!

Christophe Davidson performed a spellbinding set centred about mental illness in preparation for his performance at Just For Laughs in Montreal, Quebec!

Brandon Ash-Mohhammed was his usual effervescent self on stage.

Martha Chaves was as dynamic as ever!

First time I got to share the stage with Paul Hutcheson in years! So happy to see him and again. He always makes me laugh so hard!

Ron Josol was in town from Los Angeles. Such a treat to have him on What Up! What Up! Toronto. Truly one of the great comedians in North America. One of my heroes when I first started comedy.
