Comedian lineup for the French Comedy Night on November 22, 2024: 

Rachelle Elie
Born in Toronto to a Haitian father and an American mother, Rachelle Elie was an actress before becoming a comedian. A proud representative of Generation X and mother of two (whom she pretends to love), she refined her art in the language of Shakespeare for several years before tackling the French-language comedy market. She took the plunge in 2019 and quickly piqued the industry's interest. Three years later, she is one of the artists with the most stage time in the 2022 Zoofest Festival program, and takes part in her very first Just For Laughs Gala.

JC Surette
A native of Acadia, JC has a background as a storyteller and comedian, and fell in love with humor while performing, somewhat by chance, at a Comedy Show in New Brunswick. He moved to Montreal, or rather to the "École Nationale de l'Humour", where he graduated in 2011. JC has an American stand-up style, with a touch of British absurdist humor mixed with the joviality of a French-Canadian raconteur. He's precise, efficient and, despite his Acadianism, we understand when he speaks! 

Trevor Thompson
After several years of touring Ottawa's English-language stages as a professional comedian, Trevor made his debut in the world of French-language comedy in the fall of 2021, in Gatineau. Although originally an English-speaking comedian, Trevor has always been a Francophile, and it was in 2022 that he decided to move to Montreal to continue developing his career as a French-language comedian. Driven by an intense curiosity, Trevor is an enthusiastic and passionate performer.

Rosalie Lacroix
From Rockland, Rosalie graduated from the "École nationale de l'humour" in 2023. She's funny, she's local: what more could you ask for?  

RADI
RADI, was born in northern France. He wrote two one-man shows, “Il se cherche” and “Radi est abnormalement normal”. A very active writer and performer, he has appeared in numerous shows both on stage and on the French screen. Since arriving in Montreal, Radi has multiplied his on-stage experiences, and he's proud to say that he's finally found his place in the great French Canadian comedy industry!
