Alterna Savings Crackup has been presenting comedy for a cause shows for the past 13 years in Ottawa. Formerly named, Cracking-up the Capital, it began as a one-night comedy show and has grown into a two week-long festival that takes place during Winterlude. With the help of our sponsors, community partners, media partners, and our supporters, Alterna Savings Crackup has raised over $190, 000 in support of local mental health initiatives. With the support of the United Way Ottawa, this year’s festival will benefit Amethyst Women’s Addiction Centre, Causeway, the Dave Smith Youth Treatment Centre, Do It for Daron (DIFD) at The Royal, Partners for Mental Health, and the Wabano Centre for Aboriginal Health. We look forward to seeing you at our 2017 events. For more information and to purchase your tickets visit our website: www.crackup.ca.
