Jason Zinger introduced us to Elizabeth Rose Morriss at our March 2015 show. Like Jason, Elizabeth is a musical theatre performer. I've enjoyed her performances as part of Bygone Theatre fundraising events at The Social Capital Theatre. Given her talent and love of Star Trek, it made sense to book her to perform as part [...]

Dandies Spotlight: Peter Wildman
onPeter Wildman was a childhood hero of mine, as one of the funny four of The Frantics. "Who?" you millenials might ask. The Frantics were Canada's premiere sketch comedy group, you whippersnappers.

Dandies Spotlight: Zabrina Chevannes
onThe first time we saw Zabrina Chevannes do stand-up, was at show in Little Italy a few years ago; we went to support our friend, Alex Crawford.

Garrett's sense of humour isn't negative or malicious -- he is wonderfully irreverent, almost daring the audience to stop him from making dirty jokes. Garrett has supported The Dandies from the beginning. Here is a world-class stand-up comedian -- he literally travels the world (with heavy [...]

Holodeck Follies – Kraken Not Stirred
onKraken Not Stirred Our friends in High Heels Lo Fi suggested we check out and book this new electrofilk band, Kraken Not Stirred. It took us a while, but we finally appeased the mighty Kraken for the honour of hosting the first public performance. The Kraken, wishing to express his fascination with these stories, now uses [...]

Holodeck Follies – Garrett Jamieson
onGarrett Jamieson is basically the devil It isn't like he is the redheaded stepchild of the Toronto stand up comedy scene; the crowd loves him everywhere he plays. One on one, Garrett is a quiet and engaging guy. And then he hits the stage. The guy is a charmer. As with any good comedian, he [...]
