Headliner Rebecca Reeds

She’s performed in the United Kingdom, United States, and all over Canada. She has opened for several distinguished comedians like Tom Green, Beth Stelling, Matt Braunger, and Pete Johansson.
Rebecca has appeared on SiriusXM, Fox, and CBC Comedy where her clip was viewed more than 1 million times.

In October 2018, The Villain Was Right premiered on the From Superheroes Podcast Network. Along with co-host comedian Craig Fay, Rebecca views movies and TV shows from the villain’s perspective and dares to ask if they were really all that bad.
With special guests:
Jay Freeborn

He also hosts “Friday Night Special” inside the Underground comedy club. Jay has been selected to open for several American comedians like, Aparna Nancherla, Steve Hoffstetter, Joe Derosa, Sam Tripoli, Dean Delray, Brian Redban, Mark Normand, but mostly he wants you to know he will work for sliced meat!
Amish Patel
Amish’s life began as a classic fish out of water tale. From a young age he gained perspectives on both Indian and Canadian cultures and learned to deal with discrimination and xenophobia through humour. Amish loved comedy from day one but he still obtained an Aerospace Engineering degree.
After literally becoming a rocket scientist, Amish made up for lost time in comedy by writing and producing his own sketch comedy show called Fade to Brown. He produced sold out shows with crowds of over seven hundred people, gained media attention from NOW Magazine to the CBC, and acquired the funding to executive produce a sketch comedy show for Rogers Television. After Fade to Brown, Amish focused his attention on stand-up comedy and his online presence. Building a loyal online following and racking up hundreds of thousands of views on his comedy videos and becoming the host of Second City’s Diversity night. Not bad for a guy who used to work on jet engines!
