Back to Fool: A Comedy Event @ Hampton Brewing

About this event
School’s in session, so take some time to unwind at HAMPTON BREWING CO. Fredericton comedians Ayla Poitras (teacher), Anthony Brian (teacher) & Headliner Brad Rice (LONG long looong-time student) will be bringing down a load of laughs. PLUS special guest PEI’s Katherine Cairns now only needs $20 to come join in the fun!
Headliner: BRAD RICE
Brad finds the humour in topics you didn't know could be funny. With several appearances for Just For Laughs and Yuk Yuks under his belt, Brad Rice has been a mainstay in East coast comedy for over half a decade.
ANTHONY BRYAN
Anthony Bryan is a comic from Trinidad and Tobago, based in Fredericton NB - and he's not pleased about that one bit, no sir. He started gigs to meet white folks with pools but what he found was a family. He runs the Wilser's room and performs at open mics around Atlantic Canada. Anthony thanks you for supporting local comedy and he hopes you enjoy the vibe.
AYLA POITRAS
Ayla Poitras is a teacher out of Fredericton, making her return to stand-up comedy after a well-deserved hiatus. She asked a student to write this bio as a rapport building tool, but they waited 'til the deadline to ask how much it would affect their grade if they “just didn't do it?”** Now you'll have to see the show to figure out what Ayla's all about.
**For legal purposes, this is a joke.

Special Guest: KATHERINE CAIRNS
Originally from Ontario, Katherine Cairns got her start in comedy on moving to Prince Edward Island in 2019. She has been featured in two Just for Laughs Showcases, written for CBC’s The Debaters, and starred as James Mullinger’s wife in the sitcom Brit Out Of Water. She also cares for a terrorist chihuahua and accepts donations and prayers (for her sanity).
