UPCOMING  SHOWS

A Basement Circus Cabaret Enter the shadows of a secret cabaret, where the curious and the uncanny awaken. Cabinet of Curiosities unveils a darkly alluring circus, blurring the line between wonder and the macabre as performers conjure a realm of spectacular strangeness.

Ryan Williams is insane. If you like loud, in your face, but also somehow really smart comedy, you’re gonna want to come see Ryan. He’s been featured on The Debaters, he’s headlined across the country, and his album Manual Labour of Love is an instant classic.

The insane and hilarious Ryan Williams presents his Grey Cup Special - The Last Canadian Grey Cup before they Americanize our beautiful game. Come watch the spectacle that is Ryan Williams devolving into patriotically induced insanity.

The Basement is so excited to welcome back one of Canada’s premiere rising stars, Jacob Balshin. Recently featured on Roast Battle Canada and CBC's New Wave of Standup, Jacob’s quick and engaging crowdwork, along with his finely tuned material make him one of the funniest in the business today.
