The Lakeshore Theater presents a comedy double bill for the ages. Make that two ages. Veteran comedian Mike MacDonald and youthful upstart Matt Kirshen will teamed up for seven unique performances.
Mike MacDonald is one of the best-loved veterans of the North American comedy circuit. Over the past thirty years, in addition to his legendary live performances, Mike has appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman, The A List on Comedy Central and several award-winning specials for Canadian television as well as five (count 'em!) Showtime specials. Mike also holds the improbably distinction of being the ONLY comedian to perform at each and every Montreal Just for Laughs festival ever held. Don't miss this living comedy legend, Canada's comedic equivalent of a find wine that just keeps getting better and better with age.
In contrast, the 20-something Matt Kirshen has been working the comedy circuit since, um, 2001. Last seen on the Lakeshore stage as part of Doug Stanhope’s Unbookables, Matt's precision wit earned him a slot last year in the top ten of NBC’s Last Comic Standing. The British comic’s engagingly impish style is shot through with an intelligent and skillful talent that belies his boyish appearance, making him a firm favorite with audiences and fellow comedians alike.
