Our Winnipeg Fringe Shows have been doing great. Here is a preview of the Judy Wasylycia-Leis show which took place on July 20th, 2009!!!
Judy was spitfire and had a fantastic back and forth report with Johnald. Although she obviously was no match in the end.
It’s great to get press early on in the Fringe Festival and The Sun’s Lindsay Ward has put a great article together about Winnipeg’s improv shows. She also featured a Johnald Slow Pic. Who says Press Kit’s don’t help. Plus, who can blame her?
