Brent Butt The official website of comedian Brent Butt.
brentbutt.com →Brent Butt has long been considered one of the funniest people in Canada, with a career in stand-up comedy that stretches into five decades, including numerous appearances at major festivals in multiple countries and being voted Best Male Stand-Up in Canada by his peers in the profession. He also created and starred in two successful sitcoms – CORNER GAS (“Funniest Show on TV” as voted by TV Guide Readers, seen in 60 countries) and HICCUPS (multiple Leo and Writers Guild Awards) . When you add in two theatrical comedy films ( NO CLUE, CORNER GAS: THE MOVIE ) and four seasons of an animated TV spinoff, it may seem surprising that Brent’s new venture has taken a rather dark turn. Brent has written his debut novel – an intense, gritty psychological thriller called HUGE . The story follows three comedians on a rough run of shows through a remote stretch of rural countryside, as their priorities shift from getting laughs to fighting for their lives. HUGE was published by Doubleday Canada and became a 1 National Bestseller.
