Le Grand Yes And – GPYS 321

Go Plug Yourself - Montreal - 9to5 (dot cc)

The Montreal arts & entertainment podcast that asks two of the founders of the new improv festival in Montreal “Le Grand Yes And!” Lucie Gee and Costa Tsimiklis: “What would your last meal on earth be?” That question was asked by Julie Santini back in episode 320.

Le Grand Yes And! is the latest festival in a city famed for its festivals. Festival organizers Lucie Gee & Costa Tsimiklis (along with Victor Neves Borges) have decided that not only does Montreal deserve an improv festival, it deserves to have a bilingual improv festival. Le Grand Yes And will feature 15 shows and 10 workshops for lovers of improv comedy at all levels. There’s even a few shows that feature our old pal Mariana Vial!

Lucie and Costa joined Sarah and I at the back of Grumpy’s to talk about Le Grand Yes And, what prompted them to get on stage and of course because this is a show hosted by me: Hollow Knight: Silksong. It’s a good game, ok?

So sit back, relax and get ready to say “yes, and” to a brand new Montreal festival.

Le Grand Yes And! runs from September 24 to the 28th, shows take place at Theatre La Comédie de Montréal and workshops take place at 1454 rue de Atateken. More info and showtimes at www.legrandyesand.com.
