Craig Hosting at Montreal’s Just For Laughs
We’ve learned more about the event Craig is hosting on July 30th in Montreal:

[stextbox id=”custom”]

In 1987, as a young unknown Scottish comedian, Craig blew the Just For Laughs audience away, which helped launch his career as a star in North America. Now in 2011, he’s coming back to Montreal with a mission: think of Craig as the matchmaker of comedy as he presents a whole new crew of renowned comedians eleswhere readying to become household names on these shores.
Join the charming star of CBS’s The Late Late Show as he hosts some of the hottest international comedy acts of today before they make their mark on pop culture, land their own sitcoms and/or talkshows, and spend the rest of their lives running from TMZ cameras tomorrow!
