Having a sense of humour isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be
Produced by CAITLIN CLOW
Almost everyone claims that a sense of humour is the most desirable trait in his or her romantic companion, but Emily Seymour, a female comedian claims this is not the case.
Seymour, a student at Red Deer College studying theatre performance and creation, was born and raised in Calgary, Alta. She has performed with improvisational groups around the city, and as a solo act at clubs including The Laugh Shop Comedy Club and the Loose Moose Theatre Company.
Seymour says that, “men want a woman who will laugh at their jokes.”
