Here is a little about each of the performers in the show.

BOUGIE B BOUGÉ
Bougie is a new up and coming Toronto comic. Born and raised in Toronto. In 2017 she finally decided to pursue her dream of stand up comedy and check another thing off her bucket list. Bougie has been doing stand up for almost 2 years. She’s been featured on Comedy Kapow, Up and Comers and is A New Faces All Star. She was nominated for 3 P.E.A.B.O. awards in her first year including Comedian of the Year. Currently working on launching her new podcast Getting Boozy With Bougie, where she gets drunk with strangers and asked them weird questions. She has been dubbed the horniest woman in comedy and will most likely hit on you.

VERONICA VA VIE
Veronica, has been performing stand up for the past 5 years and has been a crowd favorite. Her content consists of stories relating to weight loss, her experiences growing up West Indian and her name Priscilia and the complexities that come with it. As the Host of Spillin’ the Beans Comedy, she enjoys meeting new and pro comedians alike and hopes to continue hosting well into her 80’s.

NICOLE BENJAMIN
Nicole is a new comic and recent grad of the Second City’s stand up program. Like a peanut M&M, Nicole is an extrovert inside of an introvert’s candy shell. Her comedy draws on her life experiences and has been described as relatable and fun. A physiotherapist by day, you can find Nicole trying out some open mics around the city and telling jokes to her patients who have no choice but to listen.

SASHKA DAVIS
Sashka got her start in the sleepy Brampton suburb and has since escaped to the Toronto sprawl in order to deliver her neurotic comedy. She has performed at Comedy Bar, Underground Cafe and Corner Comedy shows. Like many people, Sashka has her share of awkward social events, but there is joy in finding the light in failed relationships, West Indies upbringing and suburban suffrage through her jokes. All she wants is to share her dark commentary and side prodding awkwardness with the audience willing to tell her she’s right.

TAMARA SHEVON
Tamara is a Toronto-based comic who started her comedic story-telling through wine-coloured glasses in Bejing, China. Since then, she has been blazing through the Toronto scene with her characteristic wit and her lovable ability to flirt with the boundaries of the socially acceptable. Tamara produces and hosts the popular Against the Collar Comedy Show. Tamara has performed stand up all over China, Canada, and the United States and was second runner-up in the Beijing Improv Comedy Festival.
