Local Woman Lights Up the Big City With Comedy

Actor, author, and life coach Patricia Tomasi, a Vaughan resident, used the launch of her book last month to help in Vaughan raise awareness for mental health. A percentage of the proceeds will be donated to Partners for Mental Health. On February 12th, which also was Bell Let’s Talk Day, the Lower Ossington Theatre Cabaret Room in Toronto was the venue for Patricia’s one woman comedy show about her journey through, and eventual overcoming of, depression and anxiety. Also, Comedy on the Danforth's audience favourite, Dan's Mix '95, was also performed for the crowd in attendance – who helped raise approximately $1000 to benefit Partners for Mental Health.
