Who is this guy?
People often tell Scottie Grinton he is funny. He pretends they say it to be nice. No, they say it because it's true.
Scottie is a well-known member of Calgary comedy and theatre communities and is a professional comedian and actor. He can be found on many stages throughout the year, but there is more to him than laughs.
He is a past president of Alberta Theatre Projects' board of directors as well a that of the Evergreen Theatre Company.
In his day job, Scottie is an associate broker with more than 21 years of experience in the real estate industry. He helps clients make their move and coaches and mentors newer colleagues within the brokerage.
He does all this serious stuff with an innate sense of humour that explains why people tell him he's funny.
Your audience is waiting to be wowed!
Christian Twomey
Chairman 2023
Calgary Real Estate Board
We hired Scottie as the Master of Ceremonies at the Calgary Real Estate Board's Diamond Gala which recognized and celebrated the achievements of our outstanding members and volunteers. He knocked it out of the park!
Scottie is incredibly talented, recognized a diverse audience and engaged with the entire room using his quick wit. His comedy appropriately tested the audience while never crossing the line. The audience was intensely focused on what was coming next, laughing deeply with tears in their eyes while nodding their heads in agreement.
Scottie expertly kept the evening on schedule and naturally allowed the event to flow without any concern about failing or ever feeling rushed. I would not hesitate to refer and recommend Scottie as emcee for your next corporate event. He will have the audience laughing in the aisles while expertly navigating the evening.

Scottie is the emcee at our annual awards day. He can be charming and disarming and has the rare ability to honour and tease the audience simultaneously. He keeps the agenda moving along and his quick wit makes our agents laugh - a lot.
In real estate, he goes to the ends of the earth for his clients, and as a result builds long term, meaningful relationships. I would describe Scottie as warm, direct, caring, loyal and dedicated.
I heard nothing but rave reviews

Scottie commands the stage with a skilful combination of charm, humour and casual focus. His advance work with our events team was meticulous and built confidence leading up to our big night. He found the humour in unexpected situations and constantly kept us on track. His ability to adapt on the fly to twists in our program was impeccable. Scottie Grinton is a gifted comedian and a highly skilled emcee. We'll be booking him again.

Thank you Scottie for everything you did for our CAT Awards Gala. You brought a lot of wonderful energy; funny, thoughtful, kind and heartfelt and I think the show was a success because of your calm and gentle approach. It was a memorable and fun night.
