Award-winning Canadian comics Laurie Elliott and Debra DiGiovanni will take to the stage for the Girl's Night Out Comedy Event on July 29 at O'Finn's Irish Temper and Whiskey Lounge, 136 Church St. in downtown Oakville. Doors open at 7:30 p.m. with the one-hour performance starting at 8:30 p.m. Tickets cost $25. The fundraising event is being organized by three Oakville women -- Christine Reidy, Deirdre Thomas and Victoria Hayes -- who are participating in the Weekend to End Breast Cancer benefiting The Campbell Family Institute at the Princess Margaret Hospital, Sept. 5 through 7. The trio is looking to raise more than $6,000 for Breast Cancer Research. The two stand-up comedians have just finished the first leg of their cross-Canada Girl's Night Out tour along with U.S.-based comic Kristeen von Hagen. Both Elliott and DiGiovanni have also participated in Laugh Lines over the years -- an annual all-female comedy fundraising night for the Princess Margaret Hospital. There are 125 tickets for sale (105 seats and 20 standing room) for the Girl's Night Out Comedy Event.
