Just like all "regularly scheduled" events, these shows can fall victim to things like holidays, larger venue bookings, or the performers going on tour. Use the links to confirm a show is actually on this week.
Tuesday Stand-Up
Bring'er Comedy Show
Big Mamma's Boy Restaurant, 554 Parliament Street, 8:30pm
Pros and up to three newcomers perform while you relax (and laugh) in the restaurant's upstairs lounge. (No cover, restaurant open)
Amateur Night at Yuk Yuk's
Yuk Yuk's, 224 Richmond Street West, 7:30pm & 9:30pm
The first show features students from the Humber College School of Comedy. For the 9:30pm show, the line-up consists of anyone who got their name on the list in time. ($3)
Tuesday Sketch
The Second City Mainstage Revue
The Second City Mainstage, 51 Mercer Street, 8pm
Thematic yet erratic, Second City's show changes every few months but they are generally a collection of sketches tied together around a current event related theme. Expect recurring characters and running gags, but don't expect an actual plot. That would spoil the fun. ($23, followed by a free improv show)
The Sketch Lounge
Upstairs at The Rivoli, 334 Queen St. West (at Spadina), 9pm
Brought to you by the same folks who produce Monday night stand-up at the Rivoli, the Sketch Lounge presents three to five different troupes, including a few regulars. The last Tuesday of the month features NSFW videos (Not Safe for Work). (Pay What You Can)
Some Tuesday's Are Funnier Than Others
These shows aren't on every week, but...
- The Absolute Comedy Club presents edgier-than-their-usual fare during the Dark Show, on the second Tuesday of the month.
