Two years ago, I got The Dandies into Fan Expo Canada with our improvised Star Trek parody – Holodeck Follies. I am happy to announce that in 2017, The Dandies will have five improv comedy show Canada’s largest pop culture convention!
I love fandoms beyond Star Trek and superheroes so I am happy The Dandies are able to expand our repetoire.
Check out our performance schedule, say hello in the halls, and have a great weekend!
