Master musical impressionist Andre-Philippe Gagnon returns to his native Canada with a brand new show, with all new material along with a selection of all-time favourites.
Gagnon was just a young hopeful when he did his very first impressions five years young! From Mick Jagger to Bob Dylan, the Bee Gees to Frank Sinatra almost better that the original! One of the biggest breaks came in 1985 when he appeared at the world-renowned comedy festival Just for Laughs in Montreal.
After that show, he was invited to appear on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, where he performed a signature song, his version of the famine-relief anthem We Are the World, doing every singer on the song eighteen famous voices in one composition. The world discovered him, and he discovered the world performing in Los Angeles, Paris, Switzerland and beyond.
Andre-Philippe Gagnon established his career in both English and French, becoming recognized as a star in Canada and around the world. With his brilliant impersonations and his overflowing charisma, Andre-Philippe Gagnon is the ideal international performer. Whether it be the St-Denis Thtre in Montreal or the Venetian in Las Vegas, or the Casino de Paris in Paris, France, audiences emerge from the show overwhelmingly amazed.
