#beckyjohnston took on an incredibly difficult thing at #theactressesroundtable she did a silent impression of #emilyblunt in #aquiteplace It like all of the impression on the show were Iron clad. I have always liked Becky’s work for the ease and class she exudes and then adds just a little touch of twisted there’s something Punk to it. The whole show was so well executed I found myself pouring over and replaying the impressions looking for criticisms but cracking up in the process. They were just that good. . . . . . #martyyounge #burnette #comedy #comedynews #standupcomedy #canadiancomedy #torontocomedy #torontobloggers #comedytoronto #artsandculture #comedyblogger #womenincomedy #youngemodernlaughs https://www.instagram.com/p/BuXy1Eqhyah/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=xadcay947t1s

Comedy in it’s first appearance in history was to satirize the upper class....and the bit still work to this day. #theactressroundtable is a refreshingly showy satire from the brain of @mandrewbrawnston who has always delivered very inventive character comedy formats when he takes the reigns @laughsabbath once a month. A very special room because truly anything goes. The audience seems to consent to the absurd mostly because nights like this have built confidence in it. It was some of the strongest sketch performers in the country Really trying something new and it really worked.The evening featured @evanyrosen as #ladygaga #beckyjohnston as Emily blunt #triciablack as Melissa Mcarthy and #kaylalorette as Glen close. All of them did Flawless and complicated impressions AND DID NOT BREAK the ENTIRE TIME. The show was part panel show part vaudeville and skewered and satisfied our obsession with celebrities and the ways they try to out do each other for a little gold man. . . . . . #torontocomedy #comedytoronto #oscarcomedy #sketchcomedy #laughsabbath #characterwork #methodacting #seriousactor #comedybar #andrewjohnston #comedyblogger #youngemodernlaughs (at Comedy Bar) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuSeaiMBW_R/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3ict8s87mh38
