In 1985, [[Andy Nulman]] joined the festival's staff and introduced English-language events as well; under Nulman's stewardship, the festival increased to a full month, with French-speaking performers during the first half, and English speakers in the second half.{{cn|date=June 2024}} International and non-verbal acts (acrobats, pantomimes, etc.) are scattered throughout the program. In 1999, Nulman left the festival's full-time employ; however, he directed its major Gala Shows at the [[Théâtre Saint-Denis|Saint-Denis Theatre]] every July, and remained on the board of directors of the festival's parent company. After an 11-year absence, Nulman returned to Just for Laughs in July 2010 as president of Festivals and Television.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://nsb.com/speakers/view/andy-nulman|title=Andy Nulman » Speaker Profile » National Speakers Bureau|website=Nsb.com|access-date=June 5, 2013|archive-date=August 3, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130803032615/http://nsb.com/speakers/view/andy-nulman|url-status=live}}</ref> Each day, performers, "New [[Vaudevillians]]" and other acts both vocal and visual perform throughout the city, particularly in the "[[Quartier Latin, Montreal|Latin Quarter]]"{{cn|date=June 2024}}—an area known for its theatres, cafés and boutique shopping. In the evenings, the nightclubs and live venue theatres offer special programs supporting the performers. Although Just for Laughs attracts spectators from around the world, many of those in the audience are talent scouts, booking agents, producers, and managers from the entertainment industry. Performing at the festival is one of the biggest opportunities for undiscovered talent to showcase their act in front of industry professionals.
