Community Comedy Night

Inuit Art at the gallery

catered refreshments

Husband M and I attended a community comedy night at the local art gallery recently. It was hosted by high school students and featured comedians with disabilities. The first young comedian had a high functioning autism, he told intelligent and funny jokes. Then we were invited to complimentary refreshments followed by the second comedian's act. He stuttered in a controlled manner and was also very funny. He said he does not stutter when he sings, interestingly.

The event only accepted donations but was sold out of tickets, it had such a good response from the community. It was a pleasant night out for husband and me.  Except that I almost got sprayed by a skunk as we walked home that night!  Fortunately M noticed him and told me to back away and cross the road.

Glad you missed the skunk! Apart from that, sounds like a good night out. I stuttered as a child and learnt to sing my words and it helps. I grew out of it eventually. Valerie

Phew! Glad you missed the skunk!

I've heard before that many who stutter do not when they sing.
It sounds a good night out.

All the best Jan
