Bob Loblaw Queer Art Society is proud to present Paul Anthony’s Talent Time: Vancouver Special. Talent Time is not only a live comedy-variety show with packed audiences at the Biltmore Cabaret, but also a cable-access TV series (and website). To celebrate Vancouver’s
125th, we are producing a “Vancouver Special” series. Each show’s theme relates to Vancouver’s past, present, future, cultures, and environment. Every age, ethnicity, and style of talent is represented. Comedians, opera singers, psychics, musicians, Chinese dancers, wrestlers, senior’s vaudeville troupes, First Nations performers, and more! When Paul Anthony asks “What time is it?” the answer is “Talent Time!”

With support from the City of Vancouver’s 125th Anniversary Grants Program and the participation of the Government of Canada.
