“The Ricky, Julian and Bubbles’ Community Service Variety Show” is a new, live theater show performed, in character, by the stars of the hit Showcase television program “Trailer Park Boys”.
To fulfill court ordered community service requirements, Ricky, Julian and Bubbles coming to Philly to perform a puppet show aimed at demonstrating the dangers of using alcohol and drugs.
Originally the concept of creator/director Mike Clattenburg, Trailer Park Boys began as a short film starring John Paul Tremblay (Julian) and Robb Wells (Ricky) which debuted to rave reviews at the 1999 Atlantic Film Festival. The premise: a camera crew chronicles the boys’ adventures living in the Sunnyvale trailer park in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.
Recruiting Mike Smith (Bubbles) to complete the haphazard trio, the idea spun off a mockumentary‐style show which ran for seven seasons and produced two TV specials on Showcase (2001‐2008). The show was Showcase’s high‐rated Canadian program and airs in over 15 countries. Guest starts included Rush’s Alex Lifeson, Sebastian Bach and Rita MacNeil.
Ricky, Julian and Bubbles’ first full‐length film “Trailer Park Boys: The Movie” hit theatres in 2007 and the follow up “Trailer Park Boys: Countdown to Liquor Day” served as a finale to the series in 2009.
Come see the boys live!
