Renowned comedian Brendan McKeigan from Ottawa, Ontario, known for his energetic and hilarious performances, is back with a bang as he announces his live comedy special recording of Happy Hour on December 2 at the Overflow Brewing Co. in Ottawa, ON.
“I had the idea for this special lined up a while ago. It was February 2020 when I had the venue booked for that fall. Well, we all know what happened there. It was a little bit of a blessing in disguise because since then, my family has grown, and I have WAY more stories to tell,” Brendan revealed, offering a glimpse into the inspiration behind his upcoming comedy special.
Since Brendan’s first comedy special, “Make It A Double,” in 2014, his life has taken on many twists and turns. The “Happy Hour” tour vows to be a wild and rip-roaring experience, as Brendan draws humour from his own life, transforming real-life situations into comedic gold. The Ottawa native is known for his energetic, fun, non-political, and sometimes a bit ridiculous flair.
Since 2003, Brendan has been an internationally touring headliner performing at Just For Laughs, 1000 Islands Comedy Festival, Crackup Festival’s closing gala for 2300 people at the National Arts Center, Crackup’s Summer Fest Gala and the LOL Sudbury Comedy Festival. With experiences like performing for troops in the Middle East and Africa and appearances on notable platforms like CBC’s Laugh Out Loud and George Stroumboulopoulos’ Tonight, he has solidified his position as a comic sensation.
