Jann Arden and Rick Mercer are master comedic storytellers! It was so fun and a real treat to hear them reminiscing and sharing their stories. Everyone laughing together for two hours was so uplifting, and also shows the love and appreciation many of us have for these hilariously genuine artists. Thanks for a special evening in Hamilton, a Tuesday night in May that I will think of often with a smile.
It was exactly what my husband and I expected. Jann & Rick compliment one another so well. Even though we knew they were pretty much telling the same stories night after night to different audiences, the way they listened to one another and reacted you would think it was the first time for each of them as well. We loved it.
What an enjoyable evening with Jann and Rick !!! From the minute they hit the stage the laughter began !! Their timing and the way they shared their many stories was hysterical !!! Would highly recommend seeing their show as if you love to laugh you won’t be disappointed !!!!

We loved watching Jann & Rick interact together on TV. When they announced a live tour together we couldn't wait to get tickets. They did not disappoint (although we could have continued listening to their tales and adventures for more than their scheduled hour and forty five minutes!) These 2 are so good together! Sharing their collaborations on Rick's show and a bit of their personal lives, you felt you were in your living room with lifelong friends. Did I mention they were hilarious as well? Incredibly funny and playing off each other perfectly. A very enjoyable evening that leaves you wishing they would keep on going!
This was one of the funniest shows I have ever been to. These two amazing people feed off each other to make the most entertaining 1.5 hours. I am sure it was only about 15 minutes into the act that Rick said “we need to wrap it up, we are out of time”. How did 1.5 hours go by so fast.
Being an avid fan of both of these wonderful Canadians, I was thrilled to see them live. They reminisced about their time on the RMR, and talked about various other things. It seems that much of the banter was spontaneous. They are great story tellers and the show certainly met my high expectations! I loved to hear Jann sing an excerpt of Good Mother on mothers day. Her voice is fabulous! The Roy Thompson Hall was a fabulous venue as well.
Disappointed! We thought about half the show would be singing since 1 of the 2 people is a singer. There was only approx. 30 seconds of singing, and it only happened because somebody in the audience requested it. The rest of the show is like a podcast.
