Ward Anderson in the New Age of Stand-Up Comedy: Middle
Age, Parenthood, and the Things That Bring Us Together
By Tim Stacey
Ward Anderson, a multi-medium comedian and
radio personality based out of Toronto will be performing in St. Catharines at the Showtime Comedy
and Entertainment Club on January 15-16. His act will
both preview and help prepare for the upcoming live
taping of his TV special in Toronto at the end of the
month, tentatively titled “Reluctant Adult”.
“My comedy is about relationships,” said Ward.
“Everything from the relationships we have with
strangers, to the relationships we have as friends, to
the relationships we have as spouses, parents and children. All day on the radio I talk about the things that
divide us, so at night when I’m on the stage I like to
talk about the things that bring us together”.
