Enjoying Canada
Craig in Winnipeg 2013Craig Ferguson is having a great time taking his stand up comedy on the road across Canada with Josh Robert Thompson warming up the crowds. After a pair of sold-out shows in Winnipeg, Craig tweeted:

Enjoying myself with some new friends in Winnipeg last night.

The RSA’s Julie was at both shows in Winnipeg and sent us her story:

Just got back from both of the shows tonight in Winnipeg (yes, I went to both!). Josh Robert Thompson did a quick opening set featuring several of his great impressions, along with some great stand-up, then introduced Craig. He was high-energy throughout both shows, and touched on everything from twerking to colonoscopies! I won’t spoil it, but there are some very funny moments. He and Josh also had some fun audience interaction at the end, and answered my question: what would happen of Morgan freeman met Mick Jagger? The answer was awesome! I highly recommend going to one of the shows on this tour if you can – you won’t regret it!
