CRUMBS does live performances


1. CRUMBS was lucky enough to be invited to kick off the first show of the "Outside Joke Season of Yuks!" CRUMBS turned 15 years old and Outside Joke turned 10 years old. That's 25 years of making things up! That's also one more year that we've survived as independent artists and one year closer to our deaths. Thanks for the show Outside Joke, GSAC and Winnipeg!

CRUMBS in the end of 2012




CRUMBS has existed for all of 2012 so far, and will continue to exist throughout the rest of 2012. If you want to see a CRUMBS show in the tail end of 2012 you should go to some live shows in Winnipeg.

 We're doing a set on Wed, Nov 14th at the Cheer in honour of Mr John B Duff. We're doing the show to help raise some funds for him. Just know this, cancer sucks! 


We'll also be doing some shows at the King's Head Pub as part of the ongoing Free Laughs comedy series that happen there every single Tuesday night at 9pm (FOR FREE!). Just show up at the King's Head and enjoy whatever is happening... it just might end up being a CRUMBS show.

Then you can look forward to a CRUMBS show with Outside Joke at the Gas Station Theatre on Sat, Dec 8th! Yup, it will be pretty cool to have another awesome improv show there. This time it will be all about birthdays. Outside Joke turns 10 years old and CRUMBS turns 15 years old. So many years, so many laughs, so many good good times.

And then finally, it will be 2013 and we'll have to tell you all about that.  
  

CRUMBS and the Winnipeg Improv Festival

 So the Winnipeg if... Improv Festival is just about to start. The theatre is getting ready for awesomeness on the stage. The posters are being hung on lamp posts with care. Out of town guests are packing all their funniest underwear. The local improvisers and comedians are crossing off the days on their calendars. Audiences are starting to camp outside the Gas Station Arts Centre for tickets like they're a brand new Apple product. And finally, Winnipeg prepares for another festival honouring the artform of making it up.

As you may or may not know CRUMBS is behind the scenes making sure all the "making up" goes off without a hitch. This post is all about where you can catch CRUMBS while the festival starts up and roars into gear.
