Erin Cebula -
Thursday, June 20
Erin is back at Global B.C. and works as the West Coast
reporter for ET Canada. And she's come a long way since
the days when eight-year-old Erin interviewed her family
on Christmas Day, poking them with a microphone, and
asking the really tough questions, like, "Are you happy
with the gift Grandma gave you?" Now she's chatting with
Hugh Jackman, the day he became People magazine's
"Sexiest Man Alive." Now she's dancing in the Michael
Buble video for "Just Haven't Met You Yet." Now she's
hanging ten in the Pacific with the stars of Hawaii
Five-O and traveling to the Arctic to dogsled and fly a
plane with the Ice Pilots. Not a bad way to spend a day
working for Canada's number one entertainment show, is
it?

Here’s the truth - improvisers are natural fabricators of
stories and characters - they were born that way. But can they
really be easily deceived by a few good stories?
Vancouver TheatreSports™ League presents PANTS ON FIRE,
an improvised comedy show featuring special guests ready to tell
tales. Whether they’re the truth or just a lie is anyone’s
guess! Along with the help of the show host and the
lie-detecting senses of the audience, VTSL mainstage players
will sleuth their way to the truth and see if they can outwit
the guest. Once the players have separated the truth from the
lies, they’ll improvise a series of sketches based on the
guest’s stories.
It’s 90 minutes of fast paced improv comedy where you never
know where the truth ends and the lies begin.
