Comedians build their shows over HOURS of gruelling trial and error - come be a part of that pain! Hear the jokes before they’re special!

HalfAss/Whole Stage Comedy is where your favourite Canadian comedians debut the work that will soon be a part of their next big shows!

Inspired by the UK/European tradition of Work in Progress comedy shows, these comedians will debut longer sets than you’re used to. Rather than the five/ten minutes you’d see on a variety show, these are longer sets. Small sections of the hour long shows, specials and album recordings that are going to make them into household names!

And YOU get to see the creation at work! It’s a behind-the-scenes look at how comedians build their legacies. You’ll get to see everything swept from the cutting room floor - BEFORE we even put it there! Before Netflix, HBO, or their Juno nominations, this is where you’ll see the rising stars of comedy perfecting their craft!
