Proudly Canadian, Yuk Yuk's Standup Comedy Clubs, have been around since 1976 and prominately feature many outstanding Canadian comics. Founded by Canadian icon Mark Breslin, Yuk Yuk's Comedy Cabarets have the best of the funniest, edgiest comics around. Alumni include Howie Mandel, Jim Carrey, Norm MacDonald, Harland Williams, Rick Moranis, Russell Peters, and that's just the beginning. 

This week, Yuk Yuk's Halifax is pleased to feature Wafik Nasralla, with Dave Atkinson and Francois Weber. Considered by many to be "the funniest one-eyed 
Egyptian/Canadian comic around", Nasralla has been making people laugh across Canada for over 10 years with his accessible comedy.
