The Monsters of Schlock 🎪 🪄 🎭

The Monsters of Schlock 🎪 🪄 🎭The World’s Most Extreme Two Man Circus Sideshow Comedy Magic Extravaganza 7:30pm Monday October 16, 2023, Raven's Cry Theatre, Sechelt on Sunshine Coast BC Canada 🇨🇦 Comedy so funny… It hurts! PG-13 Event. TICKETS 🎟️ https://eventbrite.com/e/monsters-of-schlock-tickets-724354302217

ABOUT:

Canadian entertainers The Monsters of Schlock have sold out shows internationally as ‘The World’s Most Extreme Two Man Circus Sideshow Comedy Magic Extravaganza,’ and they are bringing their totally unique brand of quirky comedy to the Raven’s Cry Theatre on Monday, October 16. Comedy so funny… It hurts!

The comic madmen and carnie duo known around the world as the brothers of bodily abuse, The Great Orbax & Sweet Pepper Klopek, combine amazing feats and mind-blowing stunts with cheeky, off-the-cuff slapstick for a show that can only be described as a, “two man demolition derby.” With sold out shows across the world, 27 Guinness World Records and 20 years of touring under their belts Orbax and Pepper are back in Vancouver, bringing an exciting, fun-fueled, comedy thrill show. It’s a real life cartoon with a positive mental health message and stunts you will remember for the rest of your life!

Watch them as they smack, staple, and burn each other with blowtorches… And one-liners! Comedy takes the front seat as these two comedians lampoon sideshow, magic, and the circus arts while performing some of the most amazing physical stunts ever seen. It’s a slapstick stunt show hearkening back to the early days of vaudeville, with as much influence from “The Three Stooges” as from the traveling carnivals of yore.

“Hilarious, hilarious, hilarious!” (Martin Short)

“Painfully funny, painfully smart… and just plain painful! I laughed so hard, my face hurt.” (Absolute Underground Magazine)

“Thoroughly entertaining onstage mayhem.” (Fest Magazine, Edinburgh)

Tiny Home Builder Challenges Housing Crisis

FOR IMMEDIATE DISTRIBUTION

TINY HOME BUILDER CREATES LEGAL TINY HOMES AS HOUSING CRISIS CONTINUES TO LOOM

SEPTEMBER 11, 2023 (GIBSONS, BC): A Sunshine Coast tiny home designer and builder is paving the way for the implementation of tiny homes as a means for suitable and affordable housing in Canada. At present, these homes are typically built to recreation vehicle standards that are considered by regional districts as seasonal use only, limiting where they can be placed and how long they can be occupied. Sunshine Tiny Homes, led by Founder, Owner, and Operator Pam Robertson, aims to support those affected by the housing crisis by working with local law makers to alleviate bylaws and restraints for zoning so that tiny homes can be used as full-time residences.

“We build innovative solutions to some of the biggest economic, environmental and social challenges today,” says Pam Robertson. “We see tiny homes as a step toward financial freedom, minimalist lifestyles and smaller carbon footprint living.”

Most recently, the Sunshine Coast Regional District (SCRD) has removed the building width requirement, which allows for tiny homes to be places most anywhere. Sunshine Tiny Home ‘Solaris’ model can be placed as a primary permanently occupied dwelling wherever zoning allows manufactured homes. They can also be placed on raw land, for use as a secondary home, or as an auxiliary unit for additional use for a household.

By purchasing a manufactured tiny home, the task of meeting regulations is simplified. Manufactured Z240 MH tiny home models can differ, so it’s important to not only research which model best suits you, but to know and understand bylaws and restrictions where you want to live. Tiny homes currently fall into an uncertain regulatory landscape, and advocates like Pam from Sunshine Tiny Homes are working to develop global standards that will allow consumers to confidently buy, build and live in tiny homes.

Says Pam, “Knowing about site preparation, foundation and anchorage is fundamental. Permits are required along with a healthy dose of preparation and planning. When you build with us, we assist you through the necessary steps to ensure the landing of your tiny, manufactured home meets municipal requirements.”
