This was the program cover for the 2014 Ivey Awards. The same image was projected on the screen between acts.

(Though it has also been pointed out to me that, given the shirtless young man photoshopped in front of me, it’s possible no one was even looking at me in the first place.)

For comparison, here is me before the show with my storytelling buddy Ward Rubrecht, (who, when he’s not too busy winning every story slam in town, occasionally covers men’s fashion for local magazines).
