Evan Desmarais: Work In Progress|| Creatures Comedy Festival

Evan Desmarais brings a brand new hour to the Creatures Comedy Festival.

Originally from Canada, Evan is a sharp, energetic and highly engaging performer, known for his quick thinking, strong crowd work and confident stage presence. His style blends punchy material with instinctive in-the-moment interaction, making every show feel alive and unpredictable.

He has performed at major international festivals including the Edinburgh Fringe, Adelaide Fringe and Melbourne International Comedy Festival, and was nominated for Best Comedy at Fringe World Perth. In Canada, he has appeared at Just For Laughs 42, Toronto Sketchfest and the Dark Comedy Festival.

Now based in the UK, Evan is the resident host of Creatures Comedy Club, where he regularly performs to packed crowds and has become a key part of the club’s voice on stage.

This is a chance to see a seasoned international comedian in full flow, bringing a fresh hour to one of Manchester’s best comedy audiences.
