Time to Laugh

Written & Performed by Richardo Keens-Douglas

Time to Laugh is a wonderful storytelling /comedy one man show for the whole family. It is the kind of show that will take you back to the days when you used to sit outside with family and friends on a full moon night and reminisce or tell tales that will make you laugh or scared to fall asleep without the light on. Time to Laugh has a rhythm of it's own - Richardo Keens-Douglas will mesmerize you with his tales of Mama God & Papa God, Hurricane Ivan that almost devastated Grenada a few years ago, then he will spilt your sides with laughter when he tells the story of Flight 000, a guy who is scared of flying, and To Ski Or Not To Ski, a tale about an immigrant going skiing for the first time. Then he will move you to tears in Freedom Child of the Sea, then scare you up the stairs with La Diablesse, and in-between all of that, jokes for days. It is a "Time to Laugh".

"Richardo Keens-Douglas is an extraordinary storyteller, his tales overflowing with every required ingredient of the really good, spellbinding story: gossip, folklore, legend, superstition, suspense and quirky, insightful comedy."- Donna Marie Artuso, The Edmonton Sunday Sun

"Keens-Douglas weaves spell at Little Carib."- Gizelle Morris, Trinidad Guardian

"Keens-Douglas should be held responsible for all those sore ribs and aching throats, with his laugh a minute routine."- Sam Donkoh, Share Newspaper - Toronto

A Surprise Visitor

Saying that he just happened to be in the neighborhood, well-known Annick author Richardo Keens-Douglas paid us a surprise visit a few days ago. Considering that he lives most of the year on the Caribbean island of Grenada, we were quite taken aback, not to mention delighted, to see him walk through the door! Before taking off again, Richardo caught up on all the news and met the new people at Annick. We're trying to figure out how we can all go down to Grenada (around mid-February would be nice...) for a meeting. Let's just say we're working on it.
