It’s a little Christmas-y in Kitsilano these days! Tonight we have a great line-up, one of my favourites of the year. Almost like a gift to me and any of you who want to laugh in the face of the 4 pm sunset!

Comedy in Kitsilano on Saturdays are on a roll! A huge part of that is the wonderful audience members who have been ready to let go and have a night! Great line-ups all December!

Last week the show was so funny, according to one audience member, that he had to buy pizza to say thanks. I said, “No pizza necessary!” And he said, “Dude. Accept the pizza.” Life lesson learned, it was delicious.

Couldn’t have asked for more fun last weekend! Having Paul in from France for a couple shows with such great audiences and all the other comedians? Perfecto!

Saturdays in Kits are FUN! Last week was a spicy one. Thanks for coming out and to the hilarious comedians, of course!

Saturdays in Kits have been FUN! Big laughs, great audiences, just what I need now that’s it’s dark at 4:17 pm.

Last Friday some rare, hilarious moments happened! A clerk at Buy-Low just reenacted one of them for me and the customer next in line. Haha, she killed it too. Huge thanks to the wonderful audience members and hilarious comedians who keep Jokes Please! so fun and exciting!

Two angles of the same moment start these photos of a very fun night of comedy. Kitsilano audiences when primed have been VERY good!

Live shows can have individual personalities. As far as I remember, last week’s show had a DISTINCT personality. Haha, who knows though. We’re back tonight with a beauty!

These photos from last week are not strict coverage of the very funny show. When a memory card goes to the great digital afterlife this is what you get. I kind of like it. The last photo is not Jokes Please! related. Just a cat who may or may not have chewed on my loosely placed memory card.

Stand-up comedians are fun to be around. Audience members who like stand-up are also fun to be around. I’m glad both groups come to Jokes Please! See you this weekend perhaps!

Comedy in Kits on Saturday nights have been a blast lately! Strolling Kitsilano during the day I keep getting stuck behind the slowest walkers on earth. Then Saturday nights we’re met with very lively audiences who, I bet, walk at a reasonable pace at least. Thanks for coming everyone!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 10/06/2023

Fridays in Mount Pleasant have been getting BIG laughs! Fun times during my favourite weather of the year. Strolling season/comedy season is how I see it.

I love when accidental themes emerge. Last week there was a lot of sweeties on the show. Funny people who are also sweeties? Rare. Not last week. SAVE SOME SWEETIES FOR THE REST OF US I hear people saying. Good call. But we will always have last Saturday. Hug your friends and Grandmas if you can.

Some weeks it feels like old times! There was a bunch of DIY fun behind the scenes last week and it reminded of ole’ Little Mountain. Huge thank you to the wonderful comedians and audience members over the years. What a fun thing!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 09/23/2023

We had some wild times last Saturday in old Kitsilano! Live stand-up is the best. Thanks everyone!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 09/22/2023

Last weekend we had fun! A classic combination of jokes, laughs, zings, hats, friendships and all around nice nights. Perfecto!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 09/15/2023

Jokes Please! last Friday was sillier than usual. I love when it’s sillier than usual. Thanks for coming everyone!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 09/09/2023

Saturdays in Kits! Good times. Especially around such hilarious comedians and with such wonderful audience members. Late summer sentiment, I suppose!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 09/08/2023

Last Friday there were big laughs! Big, rolling laughs that stayed with me all week. Thus is the power of good, live comedy. I love it.

Photos from Jokes Please's post 09/02/2023

It is GOOD to be back in Kitsilano! Saturdays at 8 pm is the new time and I couldn’t be more excited. Thanks for coming after our summer break, everyone!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 09/01/2023

8 pm is our new start time! Fridays and Saturdays! Fun weekend last week!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 08/26/2023

I’m pumped to be back doing Jokes Please! Fridays AND Saturdays! Fridays have been a blast (see these photos for example) but I like the vibe change doing shows in Kits and Mount Pleasant! See you all soon I hope!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 08/11/2023

Last week we got more jokes about mail than usual, more criminologists in the crowd than usual and the rest was good ole JP! fun! Perfecto!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 08/04/2023

Last photo: alley ghosts! Other photos: fun Friday comedy show!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 07/28/2023

Last Friday’s stand-up show was a gooood one! Sure, there were Canadian comedy icons, a great crowd, a Rob Lowe book for some reason and a bunch of cake but also, one joke was told that is still in my brain. It’s made me laugh probably a dozen times since. What a thing to be surrounded by such funny people. We’re back tonight!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 07/16/2023

These are from a couple weeks ago, ah how young we were. Hot show tonight!!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 07/14/2023

Summer fun ladies babies! We’re back tonight with a big one!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 07/07/2023

Sure one of the lights was malfunctioning leading to some odd light cue hilarity but that’s how live shows go! And when the audience and comedians are this good then it all becomes part of one very funny night!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 07/02/2023

The first and last photos are of the same moment from opposite angles. An audience member had said something vulnerable during some crowd work. Then another audience member was very, hilariously kind to the first guy. These live shows can have some magic to them!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 06/30/2023

Last Friday was hilarious. It was chaos. Sweet, air conditioned Chris Gordon chaos! We’re back tonight with a great line-up in a very nicely temperatured venue: perfecto!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 06/24/2023

Kits comes out for stand-up on Saturdays and it is FUN! Sure, the beach is there and patios and old home owners walking slowly on sidewalks but what about at night?? Well, that’s when a group of slightly crazy people (comedians) go a little mad (do comedy) and then the whole neighbourhood gets a little NIGHT SPICE, haha. I love it.

Photos from Jokes Please's post 06/23/2023

Last Friday was a BEAUTY! The Cambrian Hall is air conditioned, the people have gotten pumped at the patios around the corner, everybody walks to the show? Who knows why some shows click but I love it when they do! We’re back tonight!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 06/17/2023

A feel like the summer shows have a bit more chaos to them or something. Not a bad thing, just that some recent shows have had some WILD moments. Hilarious, sometimes odd but wild too. Haha. Very exciting! We’re back in Kits tonight after a beauty last night!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 06/16/2023

Last Friday we laughed and laughed. What else could you want from a stand-up show? Oh yeah, we did it with friends. Ideal!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 06/10/2023

Last Saturday was moving day for me. Luckily the Kits crowd was awesome and made it easy to do comedy with a U-Haul parked in the back. Such comedians! Such crowds! One person gave Ivan a microwave cookbook (a great gift if you’ve seen that joke). We’re back tonight!

Photos from Jokes Please's post 06/09/2023

First photo and last photo show Aaron backstage then onstage. Soooooo many funny sets these past shows. The comedians are feeling loose and hilarious lately! We have A/C at The Cambrian which may be key? Who knows, but I love it!
