Toronto: Hocus Jokus [Apr 7]

From the March 11th Instagram post by The Toronto Magic Company:

Is this Toronto’s funniest magic show or Toronto’s most magical comedy show?

Trick question - it’s BOTH!

Toronto’s funniest magicians have joined forces to create a 90 minute show jam packed with laughs and mind-blowing amazement. They’ll read your mind, predict the future, and do all sorts of other crazy sh*t you won’t believe unless you see it with your own eyes!

And it’s happening one day only - Thursday April 7th.

So get off the couch and join us for an incredible night of comedy, magic, and fun that you’ll never forget.

Opening soon: Dave Curran's Jokers

From the February 17th Facebook post by Dave Curran:

For the past two years, my businesses have been essentially shut down. However, I have been hard at work behind the scenes. After numerous covid related delays, I am very happy to announce the opening of a my brand new own comedy club and theatre. This has been a dream of mine for the past two decades. 

www.Jokers.ca will be the 905's only permanent comedy club and the GTA's newest. Seating around 250 people, we will feature not only stand-up comedy, but also magic, tribute concerts, live-band karaoke, jazz, drag, and much more variety. The location is in Richmond Hill in a very cool location. My partner is Steve Esfandiar Kalantar and he brings a wealth of knowledge and experience from running Yuk Yuks.
