FEATURING:

Aaron Read

Aaron Read is an award-winning stand up comic and improviser from so-called vancouver, canada. His comedy wedges itself somewhere between sad-silliness and freaky psychedelia, and has garnered him numerous awards including Just For Laughs North West’s, Breakout Artist Of The Year and Toughest Act To Follow.

Starting comedy in highschool Aaron has been confusing and delighting audiences for more than fifteen years! He’s performed on The Next Wave of Stand Up on CBC and New Faces Of Comedy at The Just For Laughs Comedy Festival. He even garnered this fun blurb from country/comedy publication Parton and Pearl saying, “He’s the alt-comedy of the early 2000s for today’s quick thinking comedy nerds”.

Live comedy is where he is most at home, performing on Andy Kindler’s Alternative Show, and opening up for Jena Friedman (Comedy Central). Woof, Bio done! Just come watch Aaron tell jokes about depression and barfing dream snakes.

 

Brittany Lyseng

Brittany Lyseng is a nationally touring Stand-Up Comedian, Writer and Podcaster. Her comedy career began after 12 years as a tradesman with the desire to lift less and laugh more, and in turn has become one of the Canadian industry’s fastest rising stars. She has been seen on CTV’s Roast Battles Canada, CBC’s New Wave of Stand-Up Comedy, Kevin Hart’s LOL Network, and CTV’s The Stand-Up Show with Jon Dore, as well as making appearances on CBC Radio’s The Debaters. Released in 2019, her first album Going Up debuted at #1 on iTunes and was followed with appearances at three Just For Laughs festivals (Montreal, JFL 42 in Toronto, and Vancouver’s JFL Northwest). Most recently she was featured in Reader’s Digest magazine, and was graced with a 2022 Canadian Screen Awards nomination.

 

Matt Nightingale

Matt Nightingale's sharp observations and devilishly playful writing always keeps the audience on their toes. A regular at Rumor's Comedy Club in Winnipeg, and member of sketch comedy group HUNKS, Matt has performed in comedy clubs and festivals across North America including the Winnipeg Comedy Festival, the San Francisco Comedy Festival, Chicago SketchFest, and Edmonton's legendary Improvaganza. He hopes to one day own a slow cooker.
