Read about our featured comedians for this night below:
The comedian headlining our night is Sandra Battaglini. She is an award winning stand-up comic, actor, podcaster, writer and activist, and a two time Canadian Comedy Award winner. She appears in The Amazing Gayle Pile (NBC Seeso), Tall Boyz (CBC), In the Dark (CBS), Communist’s Daughter (CBC), and Miss Personna (Amazon). She spearheaded a grassroots movement to have stand-up comedy recognized as an art form and co-founded the Canadian Association of Stand-up Comedians that lobbies for comedian’s rights.
We will have the joy of listening to Keh Dee. After lurking in the shadows of comedy for years, she burst out onto the scene during the pandemic, hitting the online shows and honing her skills. She’s performed live in Hamilton, Niagara, Toronto and more!
Also featured is Olivia Stadler, Toronto based comedian and screenwriter. She is a television writer for Crave TV, with some of her most known work being the hit series “Letterkenny,” as well as “Roast Battle Canada” and “Literally Dead.”
You won’t want to miss this!
Thanks,
Sam
