Why Book Boris in Ottawa?

When Ottawa event planners need entertainment that guarantees a standing ovation — and that meets the professional standards expected in Canada's capital — they call Boris Cherniak. His comedy hypnosis show is unlike anything else available in the National Capital Region corporate entertainment market: an interactive, audience-driven experience that is simultaneously hilarious, astonishing, and entirely appropriate for every guest in the room.

Boris's show is 100% clean and fully customizable. He works with event organizers in advance to understand the audience, incorporate departmental or organizational themes, and ensure the performance reflects the tone of the event. Whether you're hosting a federal department holiday gala for 300 at the Fairmont Chateau Laurier or a national association conference for 4,000 at the Shaw Centre, Boris scales his performance to suit the room and the crowd.

Federal government departments, Crown corporations, national associations, defence organizations, Kanata technology firms, and university groups across Ottawa trust Boris to deliver their most important entertainment moments. His White House commendations — awarded for performing for Canadian and American troops — are a testament to the level of trust placed in him by organizations at the very highest levels of public life.

Boris made our annual Awards Banquet the best ever. The big dilemma will be — how will we ever top that?
