Inside Jokes
With Comedian Denis Grignon
Plus Music Performance by Cavan & Caden Mabee
One part hilarious comedy performance. One part entertaining keynote address that pulls back the curtain on how a standup routine takes shape.
Veteran, standup comedian Denis Grignon performs an act of proven comic material, the result of his 30-plus years of painstaking writing, rehearsing and touring the country – (and beyond: Denis went to Afghanistan in 2010 to entertain Canadian Armed Forces). It’s an act for audiences that like their comedy above the neck, not below the belt – and why he’s CBC Radio’s The Debaters and Laugh Out Loud. It’s also why the Globe and Mail described Denis’s comedy as “wonderfully relaxed.”
After a short intermission, Denis, using slides and audio clips, breaks down what went into the first half – and how an act starts with a collection of unrefined jokes, then is shaped into a polished and smooth routine. Where did the idea for that joke come from? Why did he choose that specific word? How does he remember what to say next? Did he really stumble on that punchline? Or was that, you know, part of the joke?
