Wonderful Joe

 Well, if you don't already have a ticket for Ronnie Burkett's Wonderful Joe at the Cultch by now, then you are out of luck, as the show has completely sold out its run! 

Ronnie Burkett needs no introduction in these parts. If you've never gone to one of his shows, then you need to get with the program and grab a ticket as soon as they go on sale, as many Vancouverites seemed to have done! They've caught on to his remarkable talent as an artist and puppeteer. 

In Wonderful Joe, Burkett takes a break from the antics and hi jinx of his Daisy Theatre cabaret to return to a more linear story that will make you laugh and also break your heart. My first introduction to Burkett was his show 10 Days on Earth, which had a profound sadness to it, and I'm thrilled to see a bit of that melancholy heart brought back here in his latest outing. 

Wonderful Joe is on at the Cultch until February 23 and is sold out.
