Swiss Family Guy Robinson
- Swiss Family Guy Robinson
Swiss Family Guy Robinson premiered at the Toronto Fringe Festival on July 8, 2006. It is a one person show inspired by the classic novel "The Swiss Family Robinson" and the popular animated TV series "Family Guy" with co-creator and impressionist Brian Froud doing impressions of various "Family Guy" characters and celebrities. Swiss Family Guy Robinson was nominated for 2 Canadian Comedy Awards in 2007 for best comedic play and best one person show. According to the The Comedy Network, Brian is the best impressionist of 2007. He was also nominated for a Canadian Comedy Award in 2005 for his other one person show The Wizard Of Coz. Swiss Family Guy Robinson is produced by the Sheori Brothers. Daniel and Steven Shehori are an award winning comedy duo based out of Toronto, Ontario. Swiss Family Guy Robinson received acclaim from Canadian audiences and critics. However, 20th Century Fox issued the show a cease and desist order after mistakenly asserting that it relied on copyrighted material from "Family Guy". The jokes, music and storylines are original creations of impressionist Brian Froud, Daniel Shehori and Steven Shehori.
