by For the second year, Just For Laughs Montreal is putting several of its shows into an offshoot called Zoofest, and this time, they're opening acknowledging it as the "off the wall parallel" to JFL. In other words, for all of the unique, interesting and possibly amazing one-person shows by performers who aren't headlining Galas or otherwise big-ticket names to Canadians, why don't you try Zoofest? "1 show for $15, 2 shows for $20" Or get a Zoopass for $29.99 (do I need to tell you these are in Canadian dollars) It's all about marketing, really.
What comedy fans want to know is who's going to be there this July? Why don't I tell you!

Jamie Kilstein?! Ugh! What an opportunistic, unfunny, irrelevant douche!
If actuallyfunnycomic was actually a funny comic, I’d assume he’d be busy performing instead of spending all his time online anonymously posting mean comments about working comedians.
