Colin Ebsworth was raised in a cult.

His parents were matched in a mass wedding in Madison Square Garden, New York in the 80's by a South Korean man who said he was Jesus Christ.

Some stuff happened in between, and now he's one of WA's most established comedians with awards, sellout runs, and a reputation for dynamic and entertaining performances.

This is a story about his life, family, and the cult that brought it all together.
