ISLANDOGRAPHY - Justin Shaw @ The Staircase
About this Event
SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 6 - Justin Shaw returns to THE STAIRCASE
Storytelling and standup collide in ISLANDOGRAPHY. Described as a “slightly caffeinated Stuart McLean,” Justin Shaw is a comedian and storyteller originally from Prince Edward Island (and if you’re also from Prince Edward Island, his dad probably knows your dad.) Weaving tales of his madcap misadventures across Canada, ISLANDOGRAPHY is a one hour fish-out-of-water comedy filled with big laughs and big feelings from Canada’s smallest province. If you’ve ever had to leave home, this is the show for you. Don’t miss the down-home hilarity that is Justin Shaw’s ISLANDOGRAPHY.
Justin Shaw is no stranger to Hamilton - you may have seen one of Shaw’s other shows including The 70 Mile Yard Sale, A Creature is Stirring, Rebel Spirits, and Nook & Cranny: Twin Detectives.
“A journey well worth taking” - The Citizen
