MARILLA WEX LIVE AT THE FLYING BEAVER PUBARET!
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26th, 7pm
"This Much I Know"
An evening of stand-up with Marilla Wex
Award-winning British actress and stand-up comedian Marilla Wex's passion for performing was ignited at the age of four when she starred as Mary in her junior kindergarten nativity play.
The dream didn't stop there she discovered booze and boys in the National Youth Theatre of Great Britain, realized academia wasn't for her but girls might be at the Bristol University Drama Department and got herself classically trained at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School.
Having spent her first ten years as a professional actress shlepping around the British theatre scene, she finally ran away to Canada to be with her husband Michael and has carved out a surprisingly successful niche in Toronto as a voice artist with a genuine English accent.
Stand-up satisfies her need for the instant gratification of a live audience while simultaneously forcing her to get up off her idle backside and write. "This Much I Know" celebrates four glorious years on the Toronto stand-up scene. In that time Marilla has helped raise almost $20,000 for Gilda's Club Toronto as a founding member of the all-female comedy group the StandUp Sisters at their annual comedy benefit. She was a finalist and semi-finalist in the 2009 and 2010 Toronto Comedy Brawls respectively and won the Brantford Comedy Festival Rising Stars competition last year, opening for Tom Green and Seán Cullen at the gala event. Her latest shenanigans can be found at www.marillawex.com.
