Winter comedy tradition fills 1,067 seats

The Snowed In comedy show features 4 in Surrey for the second straight year at the 1,067-seat Bell Performing Arts Centre. This marks the tour’s 17th season of crisscrossing Canada from December through April.

Each winter, the quartet performs in 70 cities while squeezing in outdoor adventures. Fans know them for fresh material every tour. No repeat jokes guarantee new laughs even for repeat attendees.

Tickets sell through bellperformingartscentre.com or by calling 604-507-6355. Surrey audiences fill the large theatre yearly. Organizers urge early booking for this proven crowd-pleaser.

Surrey’s Erica Sigurdson headlines locally

Surrey-raised Erica Sigurdson anchors the local appeal. The Vancouver resident boasts over 70 CBC Debaters appearances. Festival fans know her from Just for Laughs, Winnipeg and Halifax stages.

Sigurdson worked six or seven McDonald’s plus Starbucks during Surrey years. She still spots old coworkers at shows. Queen Elizabeth Secondary classmates also appear in crowds.

“I left Surrey in 2000 but return a couple times yearly,” she notes. Parents no longer live locally. Yet hometown shows reconnect her with familiar faces from two decades past.

TV series captures winter tour chaos

Last winter’s tour doubled as filming for a CHEK TV series now on YouTube. Episodes blend comedy, travel, backstage moments and snowy adventures. Sigurdson tackled dry January, exes, golf and true crime obsessions.

Other segments showed her cold plunging before rock climbing with Myrehaug. Fire station visits added variety. The filming exhausted everyone amid nightly shows and city-hopping.

“We’re not filming the full series this year,” Sigurdson confirms. “A Kelowna special happens in February though.” Fans can catch new episodes alongside past tour highlights online.

Comedy road warriors divide venue duties

The foursome functions like a well-oiled machine at each stop. Sigurdson handles merch sales, drawing from retail roots. Myrehaug grabs food. Quinn manages logistics as a professional booker. Zedlacher sets up banners and music.

Everyone knows their role upon arrival. Years of winter tours honed perfect division of labour. Smooth operations let comedians focus on peak performances nightly.

Winter grind earns summer freedom

Sigurdson loves winter touring’s big reward: entire summers off. The work-now-play-later rhythm suits her career. Spring brings Winnipeg Comedy Festival’s 25th anniversary right after tour’s end.

Other projects await signed contracts. “Never announce until ink dries,” she warns. Unfulfilled promises haunt comics when deals collapse after public announcements.

Sigurdson sacrificed spa time last winter for filming duties. This year she reclaims hot chocolate fireside moments between shows. Snowed In comedy show features 4 in Surrey delivers her preferred winter balance.

Why Surrey fans should attend Jan. 20

The large Bell theatre hosts this proven lineup. Sigurdson’s hometown connection adds extra appeal. Fresh jokes guarantee entertainment even for past attendees.

Tour veterans deliver reliable laughs through Prairie and mountain towns. Surrey represents a key Lower Mainland stop. Winter timing fights seasonal blues perfectly.

Buy tickets soon through official channels. Snowed In comedy show features 4 in Surrey combines local pride with national comedy talent January 20.
