CORRECTION: At the start of this interview, we said that Jerk Festival 2011 is being held on August 5, 2011 and August 6, 2011. This was incorrect. It is being held on August 7, 2011 and August 8, 2011. Our apologies.
On August 6th and August 7th, one of Festivals & Events Ontario “Top 100 Festivals”, Jerk Festival is being held in the Toronto area. This year is the festival’s tenth anniversary.
