DAVID-BENJAMIN TOMLINSON LIVE AT THE FLYING BEAVER PUBARET!
FRIDAY, JUNE 22nd - 7:30pm
DAVID-BENJAMIN TOMLINSON:
MEMOIRS FROM CRACKTOWN
Canadian Comedy Award nominated writer/performer David-Benjamin Tomlinson (formerly David Tomlinson, formerly Dave Tomlinson, formerly a twinkle his father's eye), is back from the trenches with a new show all about himself.
Less the move of an egomaniac, and more the move of someone who is inspired to share, Memoirs From Cracktown is an autobiographical (ex-boyfriends you have officially been warned) experience chronicling David-Benjamin's move into something called adulthood, and all the unexpected complexities that come with it - like crack. Muggings. Life as a perpetually single gay guy in the big city. Life as the most hated uncle of all time. Crabs.
Okay. Perhaps it's not exactly adulthood, but it's something, and he's ready to talk about it. A special Pride presentation, Memoirs From Cracktown is about being proud of who you are, warts (and crabs) and all.
David-Benjamin has played to standing room only crowds from Vancouver's Sketchfest to Toronto's We're Funny That Way to Montreal's Just For Laughs Festival. He also writes and performs in the hit web series Cordelia.
Always popular on the cabaret circuit, David-Benjamin has performed at pandemonium machine, The Keith Cole Experience, Cheap Queers, Homo Night in Canada, and Lunacy Cabaret. He is additionally a writer of feature films, television, and radio drama (Canadia). Media performance credits include the feature film Grey Gardens, the short film Trailing Arbutus, and the television series Howie Do It, Beautiful People, Train 48, Queer As Folk, and The Newsroom.
