My Community - Laff-It-Off: 40 Years of Culture, Comedy and Commentary Episode 1

The first episode of Laff-it-Off: 40 Years of Culture, Comedy, and Commentary celebrates this iconic production as an integral part of Barbadian community life. Its placement within the popular TV series My Community, that is generously supported and sponsored by Sir David Seale, highlights its significance, and connection with the community. Mindful of the National overarching theme of “We Gatherin’ 2025”, the episode connects the dots between My Community, Laff-it-Off, and the national celebration, showcasing their shared role in nation-building. This episode begins by placing the history of theatrical productions in Barbados squarely into perspective, offering a rich and engaging perspective on the landscape that set the stage for Laff-it-Off's groundbreaking debut 40 years ago. It ends with participants vividly recounting their experiences with the 1985 production, sharing personal anecdotes that bring the narrative to life and underscore the enduring legacy of Laff-it-Off as a cherished cultural cornerstone in Barbados.
