Spotlight at The Second City – September
After launching in September 2025 with monthly weekday shows, Spotlight at The Second City is proud to announce their ongoing sketch comedy showcase will now be presented in weekend slots at The Second City’s Theatre ‘73 in Toronto. The fall season of Spotlight at The Second City will kick off with sketch comedy trio Brain Frogs , and ensemble The Midnight Snacks , on September 4 and 5, 2026. Hosted and produced by Taylor Hreljac and Gabe Meacher , Spotlight at The Second City presents monthly showcases featuring two buzzing sketch comedy acts performing 30 minute sets for a two night run with brand new shows, exciting experiments, and Best-Ofs. Brain Frogs are an alternative Canadian force from three different walks of comedy, and parts of the country. Combining Hull, QC’s Pov Minhas , Kelowna, BC’s Maddy Atamanchuk , and Leaside’s Jim Temple , Brain Frogs have been performing together since 2022, and have been featured at TOsketchfest, Montreal Sketchfest, and Sketch To The Death. Made up of vastly different people (brown, woman, ginger) and personalities (desperate, stoned, and reluctant bro), the three Brain Frogs are constantly exploring how they get along and why it just works. Often compared to I Think You Should Leave , Brain Frogs forces audiences to laugh at their dynamic, and feel as awkward as they do. The Midnight Snacks are a Toronto based sketch comedy ensemble fuelled by silliness, whimsy, and the kind of laughs shared between best pals. What started as a group of comedic hopefuls has grown into a tight-knit powerhouse of performers who have sharpened their talents across sketch, stand-up, television, film, and improv stages. After a sold out run of their debut show 51st State of Mind, and a sold out presentation of their show Shtickin’ Together at TOsketchfest, The Midnight Snacks are back with their greatest hits featuring a stripped down version of themselves … clothing not optional (Please wear clothing). The Midnight Snacks are Jazmine Campanale, Victoria Schupp, Peter Gott, Tamika Poetzsch, Marisa Blankier, Ren-David Dimen, Robert Defina, Steve Jessop, Anthony Santarosa, and Jacqueline Ashton.

Sketch & Walk: Reading Plants Through Sketching w/Julie Ourceau
Join us for ' Sketch and Walk' , a hybrid walk-and-workshop art experience on the Lassonde Art Trail. In this session led by architect and artist, Julie Ourceau, participants will discover how sketching can deepen our understanding of plants and planting design. Participants will study the structure, habit, and growth patterns of trees, shrubs, grasses, and perennial. Rather than attempting to capture botanical detail, the session will encourage participants to identify and record the essential characteristics of a plant, including its overall form and relationship to its surroundings. The session will focus on observation and drawing exercises, and will explore how plant massing, texture, and seasonal character contribute to the overall composition of the landscape. Participants will encounter several of the Lassonde Art Trail's artworks. These sculptures and installations will serve as points of inspiration and observation, encouraging participants to consider the relationship between art, landscape, and ecology while expanding their approach to sketching in the field. This program is at an advanced beginner level. Participants are expected to bring their own materials. A sketchbook and graphite pencils are recommended. As this is an outdoor program, we recommend dressing appropriately for the weather. Please be aware that the trees in the park system are not yet mature, so there is little shade. Julie Berry Ourceau is a landscape and architectural designer, artist, musician, and educator. Having studied architecture and landscape architecture in Toronto and Paris, Julie is a passionate environmentalist and educator. She combines a keen interest in ecological restoration, and sustainable environmental design, with extensive experience in developing technical drawings, graphic maps, photorealistic renderings, collages, and hand sketching. She often teaches sketching workshops locally, which combines her love of architecture, landscape, teaching, and travel.

True Stories – 40th Anniversary
“I really enjoy forgetting. When I first come to a place, I notice all the little details. I notice the way the sky looks. The color of white paper. The way people walk. Doorknobs. Everything. Then I get used to the place and I don’t notice those things anymore. So only by forgetting can I see the place again as it really is.” – The Narrator (David Byrne) Music icon David Byrne was inspired by tabloid headlines to make his sole foray into feature-film directing, an ode to the extraordinariness of ordinary American life and a distillation of what was in his own idiosyncratic mind. The Talking Heads front man plays a visitor to Virgil, Texas, who introduces us to the citizens of the town during preparations for its Celebration of Specialness. As shot by cinematographer Ed Lachman, Texas becomes a hyperrealistic late-capitalist landscape of endless vistas, shopping malls, and prefab metal buildings. In True Stories , Byrne uses his songs to stitch together pop iconography, voodoo rituals, and a singular variety show—all in the service of uncovering the rich mysteries that lurk under the surface of everyday experience. – Criterion Collection Featuring Swoosie Kurtz, John Goodman, Alix Elias, Spalding and more. Don’t miss this special 40th anniversary screening! TICKETS (+HST) General: $15 Members: $10, $8, FREE

When Hortense (Marianne Jean-Baptiste), a Black optometrist who was adopted as a child, begins the search for her birth mother, she doesn’t expect that it will lead her to Cynthia (Brenda Blethyn, winner of the Cannes Film Festival’s best actress award), a lonely white factory worker whose tentative embrace of her long-lost daughter sends shock waves through the rest of her already fragile family. Born from a painstaking process of rehearsal and improvisation with a powerhouse ensemble cast, Secrets & Lies is a Palme d’Or–winning tour de force of sustained tension and catharsis that lays bare the emotional fault lines running beneath everyday lives.
