Featured at FanExpo, Toronto ComiCon, and the Montreal Fringe Festival, Comedy Game Showdown is Toronto’s longest-running comedy panel show! Each episode, two teams of Toronto’s finest comedians face off in a series of quizzes, games, and debates to see who will win the people’s ovation and fame forever.

Tales of the City: Urban Legends For this special April 28 edition, the theme is 'Tales of the City' (Urban Legends). From skunk apes to cursed tapes, Mothman to death by fan, anything and everything in the wide world of urban legends might come up. Watch as our two teams of comics—The Cryptids (Nikki Ashworth, Ada Nicolle, George Burgess) and The Yokai Watchers (Ted Morris, Sebastian D. Chow, Lily Langen)—face off to see who wins the 'Elevator Game' and who wakes up in a bathtub full of ice!

Practical Info Hosted by Dan Donnelly, this show is a must-see for comedy fans. It takes place at the John Candy Box Theatre at 1 York Street. Tickets are $25. Grab yours and prepare for a night of hilarious, improvised chaos.
