Larry Smith's Stand-Up Comedy

Larry Smith has been performing stand-up comedy professionally for over 30 years and he's still the life of the party!
On May 5th, 1984, a young stand-up comedian took the stage at Crackers Comedy Club in Hamilton, Ontario. Larry had the comedy bug and it was running strong. The audience thought so too. Larry had broken on to the comedy scene with a fire inside of him that no one could extinguish.

Shortly afterwards, Larry Smith found a home performing at Yuk Yuk's Comedy Club franchise appearing on stage for 2 years as he honed his skills and mastered the art of his trade. That experience paid off as Larry left Yuk Yuk's and forged a stand-up career that would take him across North America.
Since that day in 1984 Larry has embraced a career that has taken him across Canada and the north-eastern USA performing with comedy legends such as Gilbert Godfrey, Sam Kinison and Rita Coolidge.  Larry has also opened for musical greats such as The Northern Pikes, Blue Rodeo and Ian Thomas.

His performances on stage include a variety of unique styles to suit anyone's palette. Larry's shows range from off-beat, in-your-face adult comedy to family friendly sets without losing his trademark hilarity.
Larry's acts involve a lot of audience participation and showcases his many skills. His on-stage performance includes character acting, hilarious stories of his every day life and even blends in his amazing skills as a live cartoonist.  Larry's live-toons bring a unique and highly entertaining twist to a comedy show.
 
Audience members join him on stage for some of these live cartoons and even get keepsakes to take home with them. Since his sets are always changing, Larry's comedy is always evolving with new material and stories to bring on stage.
Larry Smith has produced both audio CDs and DVDs of his act including his hilarious and highly recommended 20th anniversary DVD. His numerous television  appearances on shows such as Comedy at Club 54, Cooking With Comics and The Comedy Network have brought him to the status of a household name in Canada. He also co-hosted the Ben Guyatt Radio Show on CHML on Sunday nights for two years.

Larry's experience has made him a king of the stage, bringing laughter to audiences of all ages.
Larry Smith is available for fund-raisers, corporate events, private parties and club shows. Bookings for Larry's stand-up act can be made through the CONTACT US section of the website.
