Now, he’s embarking on a new national theatre tour to mark his 20th year in Canadian show business with his aptly titled “the 20th anniversorry” tour. With material that covers everything from personal stories to social commentary to songs that aren’t pop hits but should be, Patterson is out to prove that, 20 years in, he’s just reaching his comedic peak.

Alone on stage, a woman narrates the fate of a girl born in Senegal.
Born into a family of seven, she will be “given” to an aunt, “borrowed” to a cousin, “confined” by an uncle in France, yet find her way to become a woman. She dances, sings and bites into a dozen characters with humility and an authentic voice, transcending suffering and causing a hirlwind of laughter. With English Subtitles. Details
