Blind Tiger Comedy

Blind Tiger Comedy was founded in 2013 with two objectives: to introduce a broad community to the joy of live comedy, and to provide a source of stable income to professional improv and sketch comedians. The company was founded by award-winning groups The Sunday Service (Canadian Comedy Award, Best Improv Troupe) and Hip.Bang! (Just For Laughs, Comedy Central) and has since welcomed nationally renowned comedians like Ese Atawo, Ronald Dario, Kevin Vidal, Allie Entwistle, Syd Campbell and Amy Shostak to its faculty. The land we live, gather and perform on is the traditional, ancestral, unceded territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. We are grateful to be here. One of the core values of Blind Tiger Comedy is our commitment to diversity and reducing barriers for marginalized communities to joining the comedy world. We place a high priority on ensuring cost is not a barrier to participation in our classes - over 300 students were offered scholarships from 2019 to 2021.
