The Tidemark Theatre is excited to announce that comedian Ali Hassan will be hitting the Tidemark stage this Spring with his upcoming Ｄｏｅｓ Ｔｈｉｓ Ｔａｓｔｅ Ｆｕｎｎｙ？tour on April 21st!
Tickets purchased for Ali Hassan's previously scheduled show on October 19th, 2022 will be honoured on the new date. If you have any questions, please contact our box office: 250.287.PINK.
Ali Hassan’s career plans started off as simply as anyone’s: become a chef, get a food show on television, get a second food show on television, be the face of the network and have oven mitts with his face on them. But sometimes things get in the way of your dreams: like your parents’ disappointment, your family of four children and your successful comedy career.
This show is a hilarious exposition of Ali’s journey in and out of the culinary world in which he spent 12 years. Think Eat, Pray, Love....minus the Prayer.
