Royal Canadian Air Farce: Don't Cross this Line

Created by Rick Olsen, Don Ferguson, Gord Holtam

AIR FARCE was one of the most popular and enduring sketch comedy troupes in Canadian history, skewering Canadian politics, current affairs, and pop culture. What began as a topical stage revue in 1970, morphed into THE ROYAL CANADIAN AIR FARCE in 1973 with Don Ferguson, Luba Goy, and the late Roger Abbott, John Morgan, and Dave Broadfoot. The troupe went on to decades of success, including a CBC Radio series (1973-1997); a weekly CBC TV series (1993-2008); the annual AIR FARCE NEW YEAR’S EVE special on CBC Television (1992–2019); national concert tours; live stage productions; books; and home audio and video releases.
