July 26 @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm
Award-winning comedians Tom Hearn and Ajahnis Charley have teamed up to serve a two-act sketch comedy show that is NOT TO BE MISSED! Each act brings 45 minutes of the best solo sketch comedy Canada has to offer: Original characters, jaw-dropping musical numbers, impressions and so much more, but the party doesnât stop there â our intermission features local drag performances! CATCH BOTH shows before they take the Edinburgh Fringe by storm this August!

Ajahnis was story editor on comedy series Bria Mack Gets A Life, Stay Tooned, Dirts, and writes for news satire platforms This Hour Has 22 Minutes, The Beaverton and Because News.
