Theatre '73 - Toronto

These non-Second City productions are original works created and produced by guest performers and ensembles. With limited runs, these performances allow for complete creative freedom and may feature artists of any experience level.

Guest Performance

An always popular form in which a comedian performs their unique brand of comedy, usually with nothing more than a mic and their own courage. If you enjoy a rapid-fire night of jokes and stories, a stand-up show might be the perfect fit.

World’s Gone Wild: Mainstage 91st Revue

Created in 2024 by comedians Hilary Henderson and Michelle Forrester, Pink Chicken features an all-female lineup of standup comedians and a one-of-a-kind interactive audience segment.
Our interactive crowd segment invites audience members to share their boldest takes on the issues plaguing our modern world (from dating to mother wounds; no two shows are the same!) Topics usually revolve around mental health, self care, work, family, dating, relationships, and anything else pertaining to the female experience.
Through the shared experience of laughter, Pink Chicken curates an inclusive environment where no submission is too dark, embarrassing, or weird. Pink Chicken is the IRL community replicated from your funniest text exchanges.
Fresh off the heels of a successful run at Edmonton Fringe Festival, Hilary and Michelle bring their silliest, most unapologetic group chat energy to every stage they possibly can!
