  • Stories of Scotland, April 27th
    Stories of Scotland comes to the Royal Theatre on April 27th, wrapping Scottish history and comedy into one hilarious and informative package with Bruce Fummey. Bruce has spent fifteen years performing stand-up and creating Scottish history-themed shows for festivals around the world. A former teacher, he has spent the last few years asking YouTube audiences to “Let me tell you a story” in a series of hugely popular videos, amassing an incredible 200k subscribers for his YouTube channel, Scotland History Tours. Film and TV roles have followed in the wake of this success and in 2023 he’ll be coming to Toronto to tell stories and jokes in person with a brand-new live show, Stories of Scotland. Nominated for many comedy awards and named Scottish Comedian Of The Year in 2014, Bruce will bring his chirpy, occasionally near-the-bone but self-deprecating style of comedy to spice up some of the stories from Scotland’s past.

Mickey Dykeman Justin Sanchez  We want to change how the entertainment industry works by putting the power in the hands of the audience and creators. Our community is the driver for our success. We are building the largest community of people who care about the content they take in. We prioritize minority voices sharing their stories authentically—no cookie-cutter comedies. Our projects push the bounds of an industry struggling to create space for BIPOC & 2SLGBTQIA creators.  Yes, the current industry is trying to make space for us, but it’s hard to change the course of such a large machine with almost 100 years of momentum. Their changes are slow and often clumsy. At Werd Entertainment, we believe representation is a priority around the writers’ table, in front of the camera, and behind the scenes. We are dedicated to telling honest stories in the way they were intended to be seen.  Together, we can make that a reality. Hence, this show! We plan to shoot this summer and hope to raise $30k – $50k in one spectacular night. We’ve rented out the awe-inspiring Royal Theatre as the backdrop for the night.  Every ticket is a donation! You will receive 2 complimentary raffle tickets to put towards the sponsored prize pack of your choice. You will also have full access to the series when it is completed!  VIP ticket holders are invited to attend the exclusive after-party with the Cast, Crew, and Sponsors at the exquisite Birreria Vollo for a meet and greet with Italian treats and an open bar. Want to support but can’t make the show yourself? No worries, but a ticket for someone who can’t afford one and watch the livestream from anywhere in the world.  This is a chance to be a part of a necessary change. Douche Rehab is just the beginning. We have other projects waiting in the wings. Help us prove to the world that the entertainment industry can change and continue to put out comforting, confronting, and inspiring films and series representing the world in which they’re made.  Be a part of this change and share our mission with like-minded friends and family. We can only grow this community with the help of people like you.  See you May 17th. Get your tickets before they’re gone!!
