Paul Murray

“The wonderful thing about these shows is that it’s not about the talent Wendell, Sarah & myself, it’s about trying to represent the greatest band ever and supporting a terrific charity like Make-A-Wish.”  Murray says.  Murray’s speed painting shows have helped represent Canada, he has performed this show for the World Cup Championships opening ceremonies and tours in Ontario and in the USA, usually to raise money for charities.  A self-imposed hermit who spends most of his time in seclusion creating refined paintings of the last stand of the pioneer lifestyle, (that take months to complete) is now on center stage hamming it up?  He’s gone from months to minutes and he’s just as satisfied with his results and the benefits of doing this for the better of others.

Fans Comments:  J. P. a production manager at Caesars, “I’ve seen hundreds of shows and Paul’s is as good as any”.

A veteran of the theatre and entertainment industry, Lois Comartin says “ I’d go see it again and again.”

People find they have never seen anything like it before and keep wanting to see it again and again. This seems a great compliment in times like today.
