Comedian Simon Cotter Performs Dec. 3

Comedian Simon CotterEight years ago, Simon B. Cotter Left a six figure salary in real estate, by choice, and is now described as "Canada's funniest story-teller". He has just returned from Montreal after making a big splash in the "Just For Laughs Comedy Festival". He received raving reviews for all four shows including the gala with David Schwimmer. He has hosted his own comedy special on CBC and appeared on several others on Global, City TV and A&E. Simon began yet another cross-country 130+ stop college and university show, "The Simon B. Cotter Back On Campus Tour."

This hugely successful annual tour is the largest of its kind in Canadian History and won Simon "CANADA'S COMEDIAN OF THE YEAR FOR 1995" Simon has been getting the laughs--and the good reviews. The Toronto Star called him "Hysterical!... charismatic... with a keen eye for observation." Campus Canada--the national magazine for university students--called him "decidedly anti-racist, anti-sexiest, pro-female, and always hysterical." Others have described him as a combination of "Bill Cosby and Bob Newhart, with John Belushi's Energy."
