Comic Strippers at Various venues throughout Ontario
A Male Stripper Parody and Improv Comedy Show. The Comic Strippers are a fictitious male stripper troupe, played by a cast of some of Canada's best improvisational comedians. These guys try to be sexy... it just comes out funny. Constantly grooving and gyrating, in-between scenes they banter with the crowd and perform their sexylarious twist on improv sketches. They sing, they "dance"; these guys are oiled up and ready to make you laugh. Women often say the most attractive thing about a man is his sense of humour — so ladies, these stripped-down comedians are sure to make your head explode. And not to worry, gentlemen, this is definitely a parody of male strippers.

October 14 to November 15 Inspired by the music and magic of the beloved Irish Rovers, The Wild Rovers is a mad-cap adventure that sees the famed band whisked away to a fantastical land of Athunia, not to be confused with their sworn enemy, Ethunia, (and yes they are pronounced exactly the same). These fictional countries find themselves on the brink of war and the loveable, hard-working band must help them find a path to peace through song! There will be puppets, there will be no intermission and there most definitely will be no fourth wall.
