After a sold-out run in 2024, The Potato King returns with a new show.

The Potato King is king of big laughs. Hogg is a fantastically engaging performer, sort of like if Ricky Gervais had more energy. - Edmonton Journal

Callback King could be a new moniker. - Winnipeg Free Press

Part Rik Mayall, Eric Idle and Eddie Izzard, British comedy-actor Jimmy Hogg whips around the stage like an excitable Labrador puppy. Hysterically tangential. - NOW Toronto

He's got a wickedly rapid, bitterly sharp, delivery. - CBC

Jimmy Hogg: Potayto Potahto

Jimmy Hogg—RRC Polytech

The brave and courageous king of the rabbit trail, this is a hilarious mix of stand-up comedy and story-telling. As a fan of a number of comedians from the UK, there was one bit in particular that I found a lot funnier than those audience members unfamiliar with certain vernacular, but as long as swearing doesn’t put you off too much, this definitely isn’t a show to miss – but get your tickets in advance (if there are even any left). My only complaint: I don’t understand where the title came from.

Jimmy Hogg—RRC Polytech

When the audience is full of performers, it’s a sure sign you’re in the right show. When busy actors take their limited spare time to see a show, it’s a definite sign of respect. Jimmy deserves your time too. As he frantically bounces around the stage, he drops comedy gems the way only he can. Learn what a Johnny Two Sheds is and other unique terms and perspectives that only Mr. Hogg can conjure up. He’s had an interesting life and he will keep you laughing from beginning til end as he puts his particular comedic spin on these adventures. Just go!
