ABOUT AL:
Al Simmons humour touches a responsive chord in people of every age.
His father, a charismatic salesman and would-be performer, spent many hours telling tall tales and re-enacting old vaudeville routines in their living-room. Al's Mom taught the budding young vaudevillian the genteel art of punning, silly songs and magic tricks.
During his 55 year career Al has appeared in theatres, concert halls and festivals across North America and as far away as Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia and Japan. He has performed with every major symphony orchestra in Canada.
