GERRY DEE ON TOUR:
Personal story looms large in the stand-up of Canadian comic Gerry Dee. A former sportsman and physical education teacher, Dee's act draws heavily on the comic potential of institutional learning and the inherently funny dynamic of teacher and student. As a finalist on the 2007 season of NBC's Last Comic Standing, Dee more than proved his performance chops, beating out most of the competition to take home 3rd place. With his hit sitcom Mr. D entering its third season, Dee is sure to be sharper than ever on The Real Mr. D 2014 Comedy Tour.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Born in Ontario, Gerry Dee played varsity hockey and golf at university before going on to become a physical education teacher. His experiences coaching young athletes and students provided him plenty of fodder for his stand-up act, and in 1999 he was named Toronto's Funniest New Comic. After deciding to pursue comedy full-time, Dee went on to win numerous comedy competitions and prizes in the '00s, including the prestigious San Francisco International Comedy Competition in 2002 — an honor he shares with comic legends Robin Williams and Ellen Degeneres. After a successful appearance on the 5th season of NBC's Last Comic Standing, Dee launched his namesake sitcom Mr. D on Canadian television in 2012, announcing its renewal for a third season in 2014.

by leotorio on 2012-12-09Burton Cummings Theatre - WinnipegMost of the material I've seen from Gerry Dee was school related, either himself in school or his experiences teaching. This current show has more about family life, which is good because even though everyone can related to school life, family life is far more memorable when you have a close family. Also, his ability to banter with the audience is just as good as anyone else and makes it worth seeing the show knowing that the show you saw might've been a little different because of the audience.

He had the whole place laughing from the moment he took the stage right until he walked off. If you can get tickets to see his show, you must go! You will not be disappointed.

by teacher12 on 2012-04-16George Weston Recital Hall at the Toronto Centre for the Arts - TorontoI became a fan after seeing Gerry Dee on Last Comic Standing. This was my 3rd time seeing Gerry Dee live. I own the first DVD. Even though I know most of his bits, his delivery is so good and he gets tighter with each tour. I recommend him often.

Rating: 4 out of 5 Gerry Dee
by drury on 2012-04-16George Weston Recital Hall at the Toronto Centre for the Arts - TorontoGreat night of comedy from Canada's bright new star. Classsic Gerry style, focused primarly around his years as a teacher. Gerry has some of the best impersonations of the "children" (students) of his past - totally hilarious. He is also so very relatable because we have all been through the system. Mark Forward opened the show and was great. His non-sequiter (sp?) style of humor is the exact opposite of Gerry and was a great way to start the evening. I personally have enjoyed Marks brand at Yuk Yuk over the years. Great night out and fun had by all.
Rating: 4 out of 5 Gerry Dee needs new material otherwise very good!
by Balmer on 2012-04-16George Weston Recital Hall at the Toronto Centre for the Arts - TorontoIf you have never seen Gerry Dee's stand up, go! He is terrific and I have been a fan since he was on Last Comic Standing. The problem with being a dedicated fan, the material does not change that much. Gerry was interviewed on George Strombo's show a few weeks ago and he did most of his act as part of the interview. The opening act, Mark, from the show Mr. D, is so good. Very unique comedy and delivery. It was fresh and very, very funny.

by Nita18 on 2012-01-24Kelowna Community Theatre - KelownaWe laughed so much our cheeks were still sore the next day! I can't remember the last time I laughed so loudly or so much!! Both Erika and Gerry were super. I had heard some of Gerry's routine from TV, but it didn't matter it was just as funny hearing it again. Well worth going to.

by StilStanding on 2011-04-04Burton Cummings Theatre - WinnipegNot much to say other than very funny. I was like holding a conversation with a good friend. I would definately recommend seeing him! He says what we are all thinking about day to day work, home and play but don't dare dare say out loud. After hearing, I think more poeple will be talking and laughing.
