One of our readers sends word that the Toronto acts who advanced were:
Sean Cullen
Winston Spear
The Williamson Playboys
Brian Lazanik
Our spy says that Lazanik was set to advance last year from Montreal but he was “dropped from the show and was never included in it.”
Top ten comics from last season, Gerry Dee and Debra DiGiovanni were both “doing interviews behind the scenes.”
“Comedians who auditioned but did not advance included Ron Sparks, Pete Zedlacher, Richard Ryder, Sabrina Jalees and Trevor Boris.
“LCS representatives were asking some of us in auditions if we would go out and buy zany costumes then come back. Sometimes they had specific costumes in mind. Many without audition times (like me) waited outside in the freezing cold for hours and didn’t even get to go before the judges. it was a horrible experience.”
