Jeff Parry

Jeff Parry Promotions was established in 1980 by Jeff Parry. In the 80's Jeff ran the company as a booking agency and entered into the field of concert promotion. We cut our teeth by touring artists such as Trooper, Streetheart, Harlequin and the Good Brothers in small town Alberta and Saskatchewan. By the early 90's JPP had been established as a full time promoter and gave up the agency business. In 1991 we contracted ourselves to work all of MCA concerts shows in the Prairie Provinces. In so doing we were able to work with artists such as New Kids on the Block, Whitney Houston and Sting. Although working with the big artists was an attraction we decided to refocus our company as an entrepreneur as opposed to a conduit for another company. While still doing small towns we now developed into a full service Western Canadian promoter, promoting artists such as Andre'-Philippe Gagnon, Rita MacNeil, The Rankin Family and Bill Cosby from Thunder Bay to Victoria. In the later 90's JPP began aligning itself with JAM productions from Chicago and in doing so started to promote theatre throughout Canada with titles such as Grease, Crazy for You, Jesus Christ Superstar and Lord of the Dance, Rent, The Vagina Monologues

In the past five years JPP established itself as a producer and formed Annerin Productions which produces Barrage, Bjorn Again, The Ten Tenors, The Pink Floyd Experience and Rain. In the past two years Annerin Productions has toured it's productions throughout the US, Canada , Europe and China. We were given the distinction of being the North American tour promoter of Puppetry of the Penis and had the show run in markets such as Boston, Los Angeles, Philadelphia and Chicago. We can honestly claim to selling everything from soup to nuts. In the past year JPP was listed as the 46th largest promoter in the world with sales of 150,000 tickets throughout North America.
