Pierre-Luc Pomerleau

Pierre-Luc Pomerleau is a Quebec stand-up comedian known for his anecdotal style and vocal impressions of well-known Quebec artists. He graduated from the Ecole nationale de l'humour in Montreal in 2010, specializing in comedic writing. Starting in 2013, he spent several years opening for fellow comedian Francois Bellefeuille, delivering more than 500 shows together. Pomerleau gained wider recognition after winning the Victor award for best number at the Juste pour rire festival in 2017 and being named a "discovery" at Grand rire in 2013. His impressions of comedians Louis-Jose Houde, Simon Leblanc and Francois Bellefeuille at the 2019 Gala des Olivier drew significant attention. He launched his first solo show in 2016, touring until 2019 with about 140 performances, and became known to television audiences through the show Les Jokers on V and Musique Plus. In April 2023 he premiered his second one-man show, Moqueur polyglotte, whose title references a bird known for mimicking the calls of others. The show has toured extensively across Quebec, surpassing 25,000 tickets sold shortly after its premiere and later reaching a certified 50,000 tickets sold.
