This past Mother's Day weekend wasn't just a celebration for all Mothers, it was also a celebration of comedy. Back for the 3rd year in a row, the Trinidad vs Jamaica Comedy Clash was hosted in a new facility, the Queen Elizabeth Theatre at Toronto's Exhibition Grounds. Founded by Comedians & Team Leaders, Jean Paul and Jay Martin, the event featured a battle of Comedians and DJs duelling it out to see which country would come out on top.
Representing Jamaica were Comedians Lemon, Ity & Fancy Cat led by Martin, while Paul, Marc Trinidad and Errol Fabian made up Team Trinidad. DJs E-Man and Lindo P who has been touring with Akon and Kardinal Offishall, provided the entertainment.
Legendary Jamaican Comedian Blakka Ellis made a special guest appearance for what he says is his last Canadian appearance. He is retiring to pursue other interests after more than 25 years of comedic relief.
Overall, both countries represented well, and everyone was more than entertained-- especially, my friend Kathyann who definitely captured Fancy Cat's attention.
