www.oakvillebeaver.com The Oakville Beaver, Friday October 10, 2008 - 31 Raitt comes home with a smile Does not win Beaver, but enjoys trip to Regina By Tina Depko OAKVILLE BEAVER STAFF Local comedian David Raitt did not win a Canadian Comedy Award last weekend, but he said he still enjoyed the event immensely. Raitt was nominated for an award, known as a Beaver, for his one-man show All The Rage. The award went to famous Canadian comic Sean Cullen for The Sean Schau. "The other gentlemen in the category are equally as talented, and I count myself very fortunate to have been nominated alongside all of them," Raitt said. "For me, the nomination was the win. Anything else would have been a delightful bonus." The ceremony was held in Regina, Saskatchewan. It was part of a five-day comedy festival that attracted some of the biggest names in Canadian comedy. Raitt was not scheduled to perform, but ended up on stage, much to his delight. "I was not expecting to perform in any of the festival shows, but friends of mine from The Second City invited me to fill in for a couple of improv and sketch scenes, so I was able to appear on the stage," he said. "I also had a chance to meet many comedy writers, producers and performers from Canadian TV and film, including the Royal Canadian Air Farce, Corner Gas and The Hour." This was Raitt's first Beaver nomination. He said he hopes it is the first of many. "All in all, a great event, and something I'm looking forward to attending again, hopefully for another nomination," he said. "I intend to submit my show from this past summer's Fringe, Between Commutes, for next year's awards. Maybe something will come from that."
