Presenter Information:
Rory McCorriston- Over the past 5 years, Rory has been part of many funny things that stopped happening after he started doing them, such as Hitchhiker’s Improv, B’rude Sketch Comedy and One Night Only Sketch Comedy. He once co-produced a comedy show at Regina’s Cathedral Social Hall and then the place went out of business. Coincidence? We may never know. Lately, Rory has enjoyed performing stand-up around Saskatchewan as well as various spots in Edmonton, Victoria, Toronto and Montreal.
David Carnegie-David Carnegie has been involved in the Regina comedy scene for longer than you think. Unless it’s as long as you think it’s been. He is the showrunner for Pass the Hat and frequently hosts open mic at The Cure on Monday nights. Besides performing stand-up across Canada, David also has experience in improvisational comedy (currently with In Good Company of Regina) and sketch writing.

The RPL Film Theatre screens the best of world cinema – up to 15 films a month. The Film Theatre has “something for everyone” and is the only cinema in the city to consistently present critically-acclaimed contemporary and alternative cinema: Canadian, foreign and independent films and documentaries.
For more than 50 years, Regina Public Library (RPL) has played a pivotal role in the cultural life of the city of Regina and surrounding areas. In the mid-60s, interest in a permanent venue for film enthusiasts grew into a program at the Library – a co-operative effort between the local Film Council and the National Film Board of Canada. A landmark year for the cultural, multi-cultural and surrounding business communities was 1975, the year the RPL Film Theatre was officially launched.
