Derek Flores - member of the Canadian team winnig the Theatresports World Cup in Germany in 2006

Derek got into comedy in the first place because he "couldn't do anything else". If he wasn't performing comedy for a living, he'd probably be in advertising. Apart from being a member of the 3 Canadians, he has been performing with the Loose Moose for many years. In 2000, some of these guys came down to Australia to show their stuff, and so, Derek performed along with the other Canadians Eric Amber, Ryan Belleville, Ken Gardener, and Dave Lawerence in "LOOSEMOOSE". It could be seen at the Athenaeum Theatre at 7pm during the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.

"LOOSEMOOSE" is not the only comedy project Derek has been on with fellow member of the 3 Canadians Eric Amber. Since they were in Melbourne for the 2000 Comedy Festival anyway, they also brought their "Hot Nuts and Popcorn Variety Hour" show. This show was set up as sort of a talk show, and was mainly improvised using guest comedians from the festival. This show first made an appearance at the Loose Moose's Garry Theatre in Calgary, Canada in 1998.
