Velina Taskov Stand up Comedy
Don’t let Velina Taskov’s petite stature fool you. This little comic packs a powerhouse punch. Not only does this globe-trotting, Macedonian-Australian-Canadian veterinary technician-comedian create a unique demand for hyphenation, she also speaks six languages (including funny), rides motorcycles like a fiend, and shreds the hill on a snowboard. Velina’s comedy covers the gambit from dead dogs to practical jokes, with a smattering of wry relationship observations, and some unique thoughts on local mating rituals tossed in for good measure. Her conclusions may not be what you expect, but they are real and they are riotous.
What circumstances add up to someone like Velina you may ask? Let’s look at the numbers: 13,000 km from home
8,000 cat balls removed
23 nations visited
3 major relationships
2 home countries
2 careers
1 canine companion
All of this to produce the singular comedic experience that is Velina Taskov. She has entertained audiences both internationally and locally, including such events as JFL’s The Outsiders competition, Comedy Bloodsport, the Wine & Laughs Comedy Fest, Calgary Funny Fest, Kelowna’s Fringe Festival, and the Okanagan Comedy Fest.
Much like snow in Australia, seeing Velina is not something to be missed.
