You don’t have to be quiet as a “Church mouse” at this Event!
Ottawa Valley faithful are encouraged to giggle till it hurts.
Funny in a Good Way (FIAGW) takes over Festival Hall to offer up a praise and worship event that is definitely not your typical church inspired event. At this event, you are encouraged to be anything but quiet as a church mouse, in fact it is pretty much guaranteed that you will be singing and laughing at volumes that you haven’t experienced in a while.
Funny in a Good way is pleased to be bringing in award winning comedian, Andy Beningo as the headline comedy act for the evening. Andy is a veteran performer who has been featured on Dry Bar Comedy, CMT and Focus on the Family’s – Fun & Faith - Date Night Comedy Tour and a host of others. Drawing on his family relationships as the foundation for his act, Andy gives the quote that “I don’t get laughs, I give laughs. If you can make people laugh and happy for a bit, that’s a really special thing”.
