Canadian born, LORNE ELLIOTT
has performed from Newfoundland to New York City, from Los
Angeles to Australia and points in between. Lorne started
performing in 1974 as a folk musician in East Coast Canada.
At the same time he kept writing fiction as well as songs,
monologues and one-liners. The outcome of such a training is
a very special show of comedy and music, totally original,
entertaining, up-lifting and foolish enough to make
everybody laugh. Along with his unique and wacky performance
style, it is the timelessness of his material, joined with
keen observations of today's trends that make LORNE
ELLIOTT's work so special.
