Who is performing?

On the weekly Pro Shows the lineup is a surprise. It comes together on the night: a stacked run of Toronto's best stand-ups, plus the odd drop-in. Headliner and special shows name the comic on the show page.

What kind of comedy is it?

Uncensored, New York style stand-up: more comics doing shorter sets, with a host keeping it moving. Some material gets dark or edgy.

Is there a bar?

Yes, the bar is right in the room: craft beer, shooters, cocktails and mocktails.

Are there deals?

The Wednesday and Thursday 10 PM Pro Shows are half price with code LATENIGHT. On Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday shows the birthday person gets in free with ID (book 7 days ahead).

Can I bring a group or book a private show?

Yes. Bring a group to any Pro Show, or take over the whole room for up to 55 people through the club's group and holiday party page.
