Comedy Nuggets & Volt Raceway brings club pros on Saturday nights right to YOU out here in the ‘burbs! Kick off your weekend with an epic night of comedy!
Come celebrate summer at this hilarious Saturday night comedy show! We’ve got the laughs and the A/C. Let’s have a blast!
On Saturday, May 24, at 9:30 PM, we’re bringing a must-see comedy show to Volt Raceway in Bowmanville. Leonard Chan headlines.
Leonard Chan has made audiences laugh at Just For Laughs, the Halifax and Winnipeg Comedy Festivals, StandUp NBC in New York, and as an on-air correspondent for This Hour Has 22 Minutes. His voice has filled airwaves on CBC’s The Debaters and SiriusXM, and he’s shared the stage with Ronny Chieng, K. Trevor Wilson, and River Butcher. As a writer, he’s contributed to Kim’s Convenience, Strays, and The Trades, and earned both a Canadian Screen Award win and a nomination for his work on major national broadcasts. Leonard is known for his clever, thoughtful comedy delivered with a touch of geeky charm. Offstage, he holds two engineering degrees and maintains a completely legal number of cats.
This is a live comedy show — nothing is censored, and nothing is off-limits! The comedians say what they want, and if that ruffles your feathers, well… that’s on you. If you’re easily offended, might be best to stay home and yell at your TV instead—otherwise, buckle up and enjoy the ride!
A guaranteed good night out with a date, family (subject matter often R rated) or group of friends. Comedy Nuggets is committed to providing a fun night out. If you’re looking for a good time, this is one of the best things to do this weekend in Bowmanville.
May cause uncontrollable fits of laughter.
Brought to you by Comedy Nuggets - Small Bites, Big Laughs.
