You may also recognize him from CMT reality shows or Canada’s Got Talent. As a standup comedian, his TikTok videos have over 100 Million views, his YouTube sketches have been featured on Funny or Die, and America’s Funniest Videos.
When mother nature sent a tornado through his neighbourhood, he gave a TEDx talk in on resilience, and using humor as a coping mechanism. Discovering he could make a real impact through laughter, he combines stand-up comedy with music, connecting with audiences in performing art centers, clubs, cruise ships & corporate events all over the world.
Join us for a night of laughter and entertainment while Rory untangles life in suburbia, raising kids, marriage, ageing parents, dogs & mother nature.
Don’t have kids? Consider this performance “comedy birth control”. This crowd engaging one man show has been described as "a hilariously musical TED Talk on Steroids"!
