I I I Page 10 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanvillc, May 20, 1998 Section Two Veteran Comic Brings No-Holds- Barred Satire to Port Hope May 24 Today's comedians have fewer restrictions titan their counterparts encountered in the past. That's the view of veteran veteran comic Dave Broadfoot, who will be performing in Port Hope Sunday, May 24th. His two-hour show takes place at the Capitol Theatre at eight p.m. and offers a no-holds-barrcd approach to topics such as sleazy sports events, weird news reports, Canada-U.S. relations, brain-dead judges and unconscious Mountics. Regular Broadfoot characters, including hockey legend Big Bobby Clobber or Sergeant Major Renfrew of the RCMP will, no doubt, share the stage. On the topic of what is or is not funny, Dave Broadfoot suggests that there are few limits to the comic who approaches his material with sensitivity. Speaking from 46 years as a comedian, lie observes that topics such as the Queen or the royal family used to be off limits. "There was a time when you couldn't make fun of the queen," he recalls. But not today. Jokes related to religion can be a touchy topic. However, that hasn't stopped Broadfoot from spoofing the more outrageous outrageous style of some evangelists. evangelists. Oshawa Little Theatre Youths Present Grease "Maybe there arc no taboos any more," Broad food says. In fact, lie believes the key to approaching sensitive sensitive topics in the comedy mode is how you present them. If you avoid the hard-hitting put-downs and tell the jokes without malice, then almost any subject can be tackled. "The same topic, with the wrong approach, is totally offensive," Broadfood adds. Another popular feature of Broadfoot's live appearances appearances is the questions from the audience. "That's the fun part of the show for me,", he says. "I never know what's coining." But, you can bet lie'll have an answer to all the questions that will leave the crowd rolling in the aisles. The veteran comic has declared himself "old enough to say what he wants." And the result will be a night of fun for everyone.

Swiss Chalet is "Breastfeeding Friendly" The Durham Region Breastfeeding Coalition, a non-profit community organization of professional professional and lay persons, is pleased to congratulate the Swiss Chalet restaurants on being the first chain in our area to designate themselves as "Breastfeeding Friendly".
