Shayne never disappoints with his humour, his humility and his honesty. His poems are emotional, poignant and profound. Shayne’s voice pulls you in and holds you captive, evoking visceral memories and emotions that feel like time traveling. If you have not witnessed this man’s talent, you must! It will change your life!

In one word: Powerful This show was my introduction to Shane Koyczan and his eclectic collection of emotions. I look forward to the next time I have the opportunity to experience Shane and his creations. Thank you Shane and those who arranged for you to come to Victoria.

Shane is awesome. He is fearless, tender, vulnerable and one hell of a poet! Thank you Shane for exposing the tender belly of our humanness. We love you for it!

Wonderful show! I laughed, I cried and left feeling inspired and in awe. Wish there was some information on the opening act and the musicians. I didn’t see anything in the promotional material and my ticket info. All were excellent! I’m still searching for the band’s name.

Shane Koyczan delivered an entertaining performance that covered the waterfront of human emotions - laughter to tears and everything in between. I admire his gift with words and his willingness to bare his soul. He is an amazing and talented artist.

He was absolutely amazing and cried, which made me cry more. An absolute gem, he shows you it's okay to have emotions. My sincerest apologies to the opener, I did not have my glasses and did not recognize you because I could not see that far from where I was sitting. I thought you were in line to get your booked signed too so when you talked to me, I had no idea who you were at first and only realized it after. You did a great job.

Loved seeing Shane in person. Have followed for 15 years, but this was the first time I found a show near me. It was soooo worth the wait. I was surprised at how funny he really is IRL. I haven't laughed that much in a very long time. Many soul-touching, poignant moments as well. He's my favorite Canadian poet for sure.

Shane was amazing, was my second time seeing his show and loved it. His poetry and delivery thereof are one of a kind, make you think, smile, laugh and cry all in one go. Triple Door was great venue, good visibility and audio, food and drinks yummy!

Love Shane! His readings are superb and will make you laugh and cry, sometimes at the same time! He is an exceptional poet/artist and worth every penny to see live ❤️

Love Shane and his poetic words on love and life. And, the New Parish? Awesome, intimate venue for music, poetry, and special events.

The show was definately one to "tug on heartstrings". So emotional. Lots of humour, some tears. I wish him much success, after 2 years of Covid drought! Thanks Shane for an incredible show! Australia is waiting!!!

I absolutely loved the show. I laughed, I cried, I had goosebumps, and all the feels. Thank you Shane, I am grateful for you.It was well worth the 2 year wait.

We watched Shane Koyczan at Song Sparrow Hall on April 30, it was excellent from start to finish. We had been in Mexico when I saw that Shane was going to be performing in Salmon Arm on April 30th which is my birthday. I immediately bought tickets and am so glad I did. My husband and I both loved the heartfelt and often funny performance. And the venue as excellent. All in all a truly great night.

Shane was of course amazing, but Mark and Sarah were a joy for ears as well. The darkness in Mark's poems and his way of making a joke out of it, was good. Sarah's poem about witches was really good and her confidence in herself is an inspiration to every woman out there.

Shane Koyczan. A man, a legend. The way he brings his words and his stories is on a different level where even Shakespeare would rise from his grave to take notes. If ever he comes to your area, take a moment. Think. Then go and see. And get carried away on the waves of poetry.

The single most amazing and powerful experience next to childbirth. To hear Shane Koyczan, is to know Shane Koyczan. Brilliance barely begins to describe the scope of his being. All I can say is...thank you.

Shane Koyczan is my absolute idol, and I have now met him three times and get star stuck every time. Finally on the third time meeting him, I could actually talk and I got him to write a quote that I’m going to get tattooed on me, and I couldn’t be happier or more excited. So thank you to him for everything he does with his words💕

Great night full of genuine emotion. Shane Koyczan speaks truth on so many levels. Do yourself a favour and see him if you get the chance.

absolutely amazing performance! Shane poured his heart into it and served it tho is with a side of humor! I wish I could go again!

Shane performed beautifully, honestly, and inspiringly, despite being in intense physical pain. So grateful to witness his raw, courageous wisdom and humour, once again! Thank you for sharing yourself so generously, Shane!!! Safe travels through the rest of your tour, and may you be happily reunited with your grandma before you know it! Love and hugs to you!
