Biography:
Jason Laurans fires jokes out the way a fully automatic submachine gun spits bullets. Dropped in a vat of caffeine as a child, he never fails to light up a room with gales of laughter with his highly energetic and fast paced comedy. Jason rips into popular music, dating and just about anything else using bizarre sound effects, animated gestures and audience participation.
A veteran of years of touring throughout Canada and the United States , Jason has appeared on national television numerous times on shows such as: "Comedy at Club 54" and "The Fruitopia Comedy Festival". Another highlight was representing Ottawa at the Homegrown Comedy Competition of the prestigious Just for Laughs Festival in Montreal .
Not satisfied with merely being a hit comic in demand across North America, Jason opened Ottawa 's Absolute Comedy Club in 2004. Since then, it has become one of the most popular nightclubs in the city, partially due to Jason's regular apparances on that stage. The weekly performances have allowed Jason to hone his skills, making him one of the sharpest acts working the circuit today.
