Ticket Link: [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1989617278840](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1989617278840) Mike Cannon Live in Toronto ## 4 Shows Only, June 26 & 27 ### Backroom Comedy Club \| Toronto One of the fastest-rising comics in New York is coming to Toronto for 4 intimate shows only. Mike Cannon has quietly become one of the most dangerous stand-ups working today; known for his razor-sharp crowd work, brutally honest storytelling, and the kind of unfiltered comedy that feels like old-school comedy clubs before everything became safe and corporate. You’ve seen him on: * Matt and Shane’s Secret Podcast * Chrissy Chaos * Barstool Sports * Comedy Central * Kill Tony universe appearances * and across millions of views online Now he’s bringing that raw NYC comedy-club energy to Backroom Comedy Club — Toronto’s underground dojo of funny. This is not a theatre show. This is stand-up the way it’s supposed to be: low ceilings, real comics, no bad seats, and absolutely nowhere to hide. If you’re a fan of podcast comedy, New York club comics, or uncensored late-night stand-up, this is the show you don’t want to hear about afterward. And with only 55 seats per show, these will sell out quickly. ## SHOW DATES ### Friday, June 26 * 8:00 PM * 10:00 PM ### Saturday, June 27 * 8:00 PM * 10:00 PM ## TICKETS General Admission — $35 Limited seating available. ## VENUE Backroom Comedy Club 814 Bloor St W Toronto, Ontario 18+ ## ABOUT BACKROOM COMEDY CLUB Backroom Comedy Club is Toronto’s underground comedy dojo — a raw, intimate room built for comics and audiences who still want comedy to feel dangerous, honest, and alive. No velvet ropes. No bullshit. Just killers, chaos, and the truth. Follow us on Instagram for clips, lineup updates, and future shows.
