Long before he created CTV's Corner Gas—the most successful Canadian sitcom in history—and Hiccups, Brent Butt developed a unique brand of stand-up humour and garnered a legion of devoted fans. A huge draw every time he performs, he is guaranteed to fill the house and, moreover, bring it down.
Highlights "Though this country has proved itself more than capable of producing high-quality situation comedy, there was always a reluctance by our own mass audience to embrace it in any significant numbers...Until Corner Gas."

Book Speaker

Brent Butt is the creator, star, and executive producer of CTV's beloved comedy Corner Gas, which garnered over a million viewers each week for its last five seasons. It was a staple of Canadian television and has won countless Canadian Comedy, Gemini, and Writers Guild of Canada awards. His style, which he calls "coffee shop humour," is conversational, relaxed, and very funny. "My friends and I used to sit in the local coffee shop, for hours, talking [about] everything from world domination to the best kind of socks," Butt says. "That's what I try to recapture onstage, that easy style. The jokes naturally build and multiply. You don't have to force them."

A stand-up comic for all occasions, his act is clean, inoffensive, and positive. He is a natural whose firm sense of the ridiculous in everyday life generates a performance that is as hilarious as it is memorable.
