I always knew looking back on my tears would bring me laughter, but I never knew looking back on my laughter would make me cry. Cat Stevens
The purest sense of joy is when we laugh but not just your regular daily chuckle (well I hope it’s regular), I am talking about the one that you have to beg the person to stop because you are out of breath, your abs are on fire…you can’t control yourself! When was the last time you felt that way? If you have to think about it, well it has been too long! I suggest you rent a movie (my suggestion le diner de con or wedding crashers!!!)
Must see!
There are other ways to get your ‘laugh on’!!!! One word…ok well two words…..Sugar Sammy!!!
There is a new comedy show in town! ‘ You’re Gonna Rire’ brought to you by Evenko and Sugar Nation. This new stand up is all in Frenglish, which is very representative of this beautiful city we live in called Montreal. We are constantly battling between french and english. Certain areas of Montreal are completely English from the signs to the people you bump into. Try to speak English in the east end of Montreal, they will eat you alive! They have no patience for people who don’t understand a word of English. Then you have the center (downtown) where all languages are allowed… go figure! One thing I can suggest, make sure you have a knowledge of both languages when you come to visit and you will be fine! Besides, it’s pretty sexy to know more than one language.
A must see show!
We had the chance to sit down with the mastermind behind the show for a comfortable conversation over hot chocolate and coffee! Everything that Sammy creates becomes a memorable moment, a moment to savour, like when you are having a good dessert… a sweet moment (hence the Sugar in his name).
When we conducted the interview, he was on his way to my parents hometown, Haiti! There was a series of concerts from december 18th to the 23rd for a big Christmas event called Nwèl in creole. There were notable performances from Ne-Yo, Corneille and even Oprah has graced us with her presence. Bringing comedy and music to the mix is always a winning combination! I have a few pictures from the event in Haiti!

The beautiful crowd waiting to get gifts from the elf!
Sugar Sammy comes from a good and loving family who has always supported his dreams. Honestly, we tried to find issues or a rebellious attitude that made him become an artist against all odds, but nothing. When he first saw Eddie Murphy’s Delirious stand up show, he knew that he wanted to become a comedian… simple as that! He has mastered the art ever since and it shows during his stand up performances!
We had a glimpse of what he is capable of during the interview and it might sound predictable but Sugar Sammy is hilarious! He is simple and very comfortable in his own skin, no pretentious attitude, you can feel that his momma raised him right!
You still have time to get tickets for his show ‘You’re Gonna Rire’ since there has been a few dates that opened up but they are selling out QUICKLY! Click here for more info and of course on Réseau Admission.
We will be hearing alot more from Sam (Sugar Sammy) for he is on his way to the top! He not only has aspirations to keep making people laugh (which he says is the best job) but also to produce many other things (is he thinking tv/movie?) . All I can say is Remember the face and Remember the name!
Life doesnt have to be complicated. I believe that we all had a moment when our little voice told us ‘exactly what we want to do for a living. Some of us have suppressed it for any given reason and others have listened, pushed forward and put the energy into it to make it happen. You can either listen to that voice or suppress it. Its your life… your choice!
