It’s spoof and satire from the improvisational comedy enterprise that started in 1959 in Chicago. Toronto’s Second City is where comedians Mike Myers, Martin Short, Dan Ackroyd, Cathering O’Hara, Eugene Levy and John Candy all tried out their best lines.

The venue has changed location since then, to this intimate, two-tiered theatre on Mercer Street. As well as sketch comedy, expect songs and improvisation, and, if you’re feeling brave at the end of the night, the improv set is open to the public.
