Canadian Comedy Awards' Voting Open.

After a slight delay, voting opens today at noon for the 2003 Canadian Comedy Awards and our very own Becky "Johnson" Cobra is on the list (in the catagory Female Improvisor).

So if you like Becky's work or are just easily persuaded, go vote.

If you are not a union or guild member you will have to register for a little something called 'the Comedy Association'.

All voting is done through their website at www.canadiancomedyawards.ca. Details on registering for the Comedy Association can be found there as well.

Tim Sims Encouragement Fund Award Nomination.

Toronto, September 2004 --

IRON COBRA is pleased to announce their nomination for the Tim Sims Encouragement Fund Award. Full information about the award, its fund and its background are available via the Tim Sims website.

The full list of nominees has not been officially announced yet but should be within the next few days. However, IRON COBRA happens to know that they are in awfully good company this year.

The gautlet of events for this award includes a couple of shows culminating in the Cream of Comedy show where the award is presented by Lindsay Leese. All performances will be listed on the calendar shortly. Unfortunately for the catch23 crowd, they all fall on Mondays. IRON COBRA understands.

Updates to follow.
