Field Zoology 101

  • Sunset Theatre Society 2357 Pooley Street Wells, BC, V0K 2R0 Canada (map)

From award winning comedian Shawn O'hara comes the uproarious “Field Zoology 101”. Armed with a collection of stories and lessons almost as unbelievable as his credentials, join infamous Field Zoologist Dr Bradley Q Gooseberry as he shares a lifetime of his “knowledge” and “experience” and teaches you how to thrive and survive in the harrowing and hilarious world of field zoology.

This production has played to sold out houses in North America and is a laugh-out- loud evening of comedy for folks of every age. (PG 13 recommendation). Winner of Best Comedy at Victoria Fringe 2016.

Dr. Gooseberry and his trusty overhead projector take you on a lecture tour of field zoology direct from the Outback!* (steakhouse) to the heart of the Amazon* (Processing Plant). Complete with poorly drawn over head projections of creatures far and wide, the good professor teaches the audience everything from how to seduce the most seductive of snakes to how to fight any animal in hand to hand combat.

“RETURNING HIT! “HILARIOUS!” – Georgia Straight.

“RAUCOUSLY FUNNY!” – Showbill Magazine.
