One fateful night in 2003 two friends came up with an idea for an Ottawa comedy show to support mental health. That night, Cracking-Up the Capital was born.
The first show, held at the Centrepointe Theatre in 2004, was a great success. Over a decade (and many laughs) later the now rebranded Crackup Comedy festival is a week-long festival of comedy, events and hi-jinx that attracts top comedic talent from around the globe.
Crackup Comedy Festival is a registered, Canadian not-for-profit run by passionate supporters of mental health —from all walks of life.
By day, we’re marketing and communications consultants, social media experts, public servants, and more, but by nights and weekends, we become a crack production team!
We couldn’t do it without you.
Thank you to all of our sponsors and supporters who have made Crackup what it is today.
The Red Dirt Skinners are coming to the Station Theatre on 2 May 2026. The buzz around this exhilarating duo is evident. Early booking is strongly advised.
“The Pink Floyd of Folk Music.” That’s how Roots Music Canada describes the Red Dirt Skinners — and Music News Magazine agrees, noting “an almost Floyd-like quality” to their sound. Widely regarded as one of the most innovative acts to emerge from the UK in recent years, the Skinners’ multi-award-winning music blurs genres and defies expectations.
A Red Dirt Skinners show is built on powerful storytelling, unexpected turns, and a fearless creative spirit. If you enjoy music inspired by legends like Pink Floyd, Simon and Garfunkel, Supertramp, Queen, and David Bowie — but with its own unmistakable voice — you’ll love the Red Dirt Skinners.
With male and female harmonies blending into a single, unforgettable voice, and Sarah’s soaring soprano saxophone lines, this duo delivers performances that are both refreshingly different and emotionally rich.
A Red Dirt Skinners show is more than a concert — it’s a musical journey. Expect laugh-out-loud stories, thought-provoking lyrics, and songs that stay with you long after the final note. Rob and Sarah Skinner bring heart, humour, and exceptional musicianship to every performance.
Don’t miss the Red Dirt Skinners — they’ll steal your heart.
