Featuring:
Kyle Andrews – @kylearmageddon
Kyle’s acting teacher once told him he was ‘like a really good race car driver with a really bad race car’ so now he mostly does stand-up instead and that seems to be going pretty well. He has performed in and produced shows across southern Ontario including appearances in the Brantford Comedy Festival, the Toronto Comedy Brawl and Fresh Meat 2014. He also has a sketch troupe ‘Tuques of Hazard’ that has been described as ‘High concept sketches; Low intelligence execution’, a statement that accurately sums up Kyle’s entire existence.
Adrienne Fish – @adrienne_fish
Adrienne Fish loves pulled pork sandwiches and is one of Canada’s up and coming comedians. Quickly gaining recognition within the community, she was nominated for the Tim Sims Encouragement Fund Award in recognition of up and coming talent and is a regular feature act in Canada’s Absolute Comedy Clubs. Based out of Toronto, she can be seen performing all over the city (Absolute Comedy, Yuk Yuks, Comedy Bar, Alt Dot Rivoli) combining observational comedy from her everyday life as a nanny, with physical comedy that will make you believe you are right in the room with her British mother on morphine. Off stage, she was featured in the documentary “She’s So Funny”, she can be heard on Sirius XM radio, and currently produces her own monthly sell out show at the Comedy Bar. She’s loud, she’s funny, she’s got a fro, she may even attempt to break-dance on stage and audiences love it. Her energy level boosts any room into high gear and leaves crowds wanting more.

One of the freshest upcoming talents in the industry, this aspiring thespian got his start at Absolute Comedy upon studying at The Second City, the world famous comedy theatre and improv shool.
He’s made the most of his time. From open mics to wedding events, DK has steadily built a unique brand of humour that is at once relatable and guilty, often bold yet poignant. Just don’t ask him to tell you a knock-knock joke.
But if you ask him about that time he ate a bag of Doritos out of his pants… well, now that’s a different story.

He has also taken home a Canadian Film Festival People’s Choice Award and plans to one day win some sort of award that has to do with ripping farts that sound like words.
