It’s a dance dance revolution! At least for me. Mainly because I hate going to the gym. I think I’ve gotten to the point where my nose is way too sensitive to um…other people’s ‘fragrances’...I can’t take it. Nah. So how do I workout? I DANCE. Je danse! Baila! In all languages, I’m moving my ass on the dancefloor.
There’s so many places and opportunities to dance in this city, which is one of my favorite things about Montreal. If I’m stressed after work, I dance. If my muscles are tighter than the CALQ’s grant budgets, I dance. If I ate too much poutine, I dance…
So come dance with me….

TAMAM - A STANDUP COMEDY FUNDRAISER
Back in Montreal before his 2027 European tour, Lebanese-Canadian headliner Habib Siam presents TAMAM - a stand-up comedy fundraiser.
As a comic, Habib has always used his stand-up to help raise awareness about the situation in the Middle East - experiencing war, navigating dissonant realities, and making sense of a world that is increasingly unrecognizable.
Conversational and engaging, Habib shares stories about growing up in Lebanon, his family, and unexpected life turns. You will laugh, think, feel, and laugh some more.

GIVE UP ON LOVE SOONER
Poet, comedian, and storyteller Katalysta brings her new show, Give Up On Love Sooner – A Romantic Comic-Tragedy, to Montreal Improv, inviting audiences into an unpredictable world of romance, heartbreak, and questionable life choices.
Blending comedy, poetry, and storytelling, Katalysta takes audiences on a wild ride through her real (and completely made-up) love life. From brutal breakups and romantic disasters to the ridiculous twists and turns of relationships, nothing is off-limits in this exploration of love, dating, and the often hilarious business of being human.
With sharp observations, irreverent humour, and a willingness to laugh at romantic ruin, Katalysta delivers a refreshingly unconventional take on the pursuit of happily ever after.
