Launch Pad: Comedy Career Q&A

You’ve got jokes — now it’s time to build your comedy career.

This isn’t a class. It’s a FREE Q&A and workshop where comedians at any level can ask questions, get clarity, and sharpen their stand-up craft directly from the people who run one of Toronto’s most active comedy clubs.

Every first Sunday of the month, join us for an open conversation led by Backroom Comedy Club’s co-owners, covering everything from joke structure to crowd work, building confidence on stage, and turning stand-up into a career path.

Bring your notebook, bring your questions, and bring your curiosity. Whether you’re wondering how to handle hecklers, how to tighten your setup/punch structure, or how to find your comedic voice — this is your space to ask and grow.

What you’ll learn:

• The art and science of comedy production.
• How to build your on-stage persona.
• Crowd work, timing, and transitions.
• Comedy business insights: how to get booked, network, and grow in Toronto’s comedy scene.
• How Backroom books acts, and what we look for.

Who it’s for:

• Beginners who want to understand how to start.
• Intermediate comedians ready to level up.
• Performers looking for honest feedback and next steps.

Details:

• When: Every 1st Sunday of the month
• Time: 6 PM – 8 PM
• Where: Backroom Comedy Club. 814 Bloor St W, Toronto, ON
• Cost: FREE — RSVP to guarantee a spot (limited seating)

Why it matters:

Because comedy doesn’t come with a roadmap but this is as close as it gets. Hear from the guys who built a comedy club from the ground up, and get the answers you can’t find online.
