Did you know that Allyson is also the Founder & Executive Director of a non-profit organization called Jest for Joy? Jest for Joy is a registered charity that promotes wellness in health care settings through improvisational humour, song, physical theatre and wit. The performers, who are specially trained theatrical artists, deliver this work through characters called “clown-doctors”.
Jest for Joy currently delivers service at the George Pearson Centre in Vancouver, a long-term care facility for adults with acute medical needs. They are working on obtaining corporate sponsorship so that they can continue this inspirational work and offer their services to additional facilities in the near future.
