A Brief History of Petty Crime
by Jimmy Hogg
presented by The Roodie Pancake Experiment
from Toronto
After the sell-out success of 2007's Curriculum Vitae, Brit
Jimmy Hogg returns to Toronto to
discuss his life of petty crime. Physical, fast-paced hilarious storytelling
with a car crash and plenty of tangents.
“His characterizations are spot on, and while the piece
jumps from story to story-centering on a traumatic night out that ends with the
threat of prison looming over the young narrator's head-Hogg juggles them like
a trained master with three chainsaws and a flaming baton in the air.” -City
Pages, Minnesota .
"Curriculum Vitae, knocks your socks off... Dickens
would love this guy." - Orlando
Sentinel.
“Managing to fit so many entertaining characters, hilarious
anecdotes, and witty pop-culture references into 60 minutes is a difficult test
of endurance, a test Hogg passes with flying colours.” ***** (5 out of 5) Eye
Magazine, Toronto .
