✨ Meet Velvet La Touche! ..er, make that make that 'Velvet The Victorious!'✨

This Saturday, catch the one and only Velvet La Touche—a burlesque, comedy diva, and now your favorite Viking-inspired clown—bringing her unique blend of wit and physical comedy to the stage in Scrooge: A Christmas Clown! 🎭

Voted in the Top 10 Best Performers in Montreal by Cult Magazine multiple times, Velvet has been a bold force in the city’s performance scene for over a decade. She made her Just For Laughs debut in 2013, and has since become known for her unforgettable combination of comedy and burlesque. The inspiration for Scrooge: A Christmas Clown came from the incredible clowns Velvet has met while training and developing her hit solo show, Velvet’s Greatest T**s!

In this bilingual comedy twist on A Christmas Carol, Velvet takes on the challenge of blending improvisation, live music, and clown games to bring the story of Scrooge to life—one laugh at a time.

Tomorrow begins rehearsals for this comedy holiday show I've been working on! I LOVE working with physical comedians! Rehearsals is one of the best parts of making art for me! Get the creative juice pumping and making each other laugh :) ... Making images and posters is not my strong suite but I think I did a good job :) ... still have more tweaking to do but looks good so far.

This is a improvised adaptation of Scrooge A Christmas Carol.. why rehearse if its improvised? Clowns go off energy and vibing off each other. So its just a fun thing to jam together and have fun before the show on Dec 14 at TSC.

Five clowns tell the story of Scrooge!

Scrooge=Blaise
Bob Cratchit = Jerome
Ghost of Christmas Past = Ri Ma
Ghost of Christmas Present = Me!
Marley = Jean Saucier

Some of my favourite people I've met while doing improv and clown over the last few years. Can't wait for you to see! xox
