KitH New Tour: N’Ottawa

Comedy troupe The Kids In The Hall brought their reunion tour to Canadian soil Sunday night with a show in Winnipeg.

It’s been six years since the Kids last toured, and Bruce McCulloch says he’s enjoying the reunion.

McCulloch, whose characters on the Kids’ hit TV show included Cathy the gossiping secretary and a flying pig, says the group is playing mostly new material on the tour.

He says he and his colleagues didn’t want to simply replay old gags for nostalgia.

The Winnipeg crowd ate up the new material, including a skit where a couple claims to be crack addicts in order to avoid becoming godparents to an ugly baby.

The Kids bring their show to Calgary, Toronto and other cities in the coming weeks.

But n’Ottawa (term I coined growing up, nothing cool ever came to Ottawa as in “Is Mr. T coming to Canada? Yeah, to Toronto and Montreal but n’Ottawa). They were here for their last tour which was great but didn’t have much new stuff but it was sold out nonetheless.

If I wasn’t lazy I’d write an angry email to… people.
