Bruce McCulloch
Bruce McCulloch's Tales of Bravery and Stupidity is a one-man show that moves brilliantly between funny, relatable and surprisingly touching. Using music, stand-up and storytelling, Bruce McCulloch takes us on a poetic flyover of his life. The show combines Bruce's knack for funny observations with his humanistic yearnings, looking at the bravely stupid things he's done - and things we all do - to make sense of our messy lives. From musings about his worldview to a window into his family, Bruce looks at the way we reach outward and inward, and his struggle against his own internal pessimism to see the beauty and joy in life.

Bruce McCulloch is a Canadian comedy icon best known as "the dark one" in Canada's Walk of Fame-Inducted sketch comedy troupe, The Kids in the Hall. Bruce has released two musical comedy albums and is an accomplished director and producer. In 2014 he published Let's Start a Riot: How a Young Drunk Punk Became a Hollywood Dad, a memoir which he later adapted for television in the comedy series, Young Drunk Punk.
