Spotlight at The Second City is proud to announce the lineup for their monthly sketch comedy showcase on November 13 and 14 at The Second City’s Theatre ‘73 in Toronto. Wrapping up the 2026 season, the November edition of Spotlight at The Second City will feature solo sketch artist Sarah Conway , and Toronto’s masters of the short scene TIK TOK BOOM . 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. 2026 Sketch To The Death champion Sarah Conway brings mischief and delight to the stage with a sort of Montana's Ultimate Appetizer Combo of sketch comedy that includes characters, music, burlesque, and, of course, several wonderful dips. Her new half-hour balances real vulnerability with fast-paced absurdity. True to her alternative comedy roots, Sarah’s work is earnest, inventive, and deeply silly. Sarah has performed in classical comedies like The Flying Doctor (Perchance Theatre) and one-woman dramas like The Shape of a Girl (Green Thumb Theatre). Sarah plays Officer Taylor O’Neill on CityTV’s Hudson & Rex , and has appeared on CBC’s Son of a Critch as both Reporter and Local Reporter Each TIK TOK BOOM show is made up entirely of “blackouts.” That means every sketch is two minutes or less.

$25 Adopt-a-thon

The Mississauga Animal Services Shelter is asking residents to help shelter animals find loving homes during their fall Adopt-a-thon. From November 2 to 14, Monday to Saturday, all dogs and cats at the shelter can be adopted for just $25, plus HST and any applicable pet licence fees for Mississauga residents. This reduced rate offers significant savings compared to regular adoption fees, which are typically $280 plus HST for dogs and puppies and up to $190 plus HST for cats and kittens. View pet profiles online. Why adopt from Mississauga Animal Services? When you adopt from the shelter, you give an animal a second chance at a happy life. All cats and dogs available for adoption have received basic medical care, including vaccines and spay or neuter surgery. This can help save you money on the initial costs of pet ownership. If an animal is too young to be spayed or neutered at the time of adoption, adopters will receive a voucher to have the procedure completed at a later date. First‑time pet owners can also get helpful tips from shelter staff on training, food and exercise to make bringing a new pet home easier. Learn more about adopting a pet . This is a multiple day event from Monday to Saturday, November 2 to 14, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

ExperienceTO: Bay Street Historical Tour

Join us for the free-to-attend Bay Street Historical Tour. About Bay Street: Early Bay St. was a far cry from what we know today, and not merely because it lacked the stature of buildings it now boasts. It was one of the streets that connected Lot St. (now Queen St.) to the harbour. Today, Bay Street holds paramount importance in the Canadian financial landscape. It is home to five of Canada’s major banks: the Bank of Montreal, Scotiabank, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CIBC), Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD Bank), and the Royal Bank. The concentration of these financial powerhouses underscores Bay Street’s pivotal role as the epicenter of Canada’s financial activities. Join us for a FREE, public walking tour that will be a good experience for anyone: whether you’re 8 or 80 years old, and whether you’re a curious local, solo traveler, backpacker, newcomer, or part of a group of friends. ABOUT Beginning in front of Toronto Old City Hall (60 Queen St W, Toronto, ON M5H 2M3), the interactive tour will be hosted by your guide Alex Rășcanu . The tour will focus on Bay Street's history. The historical tour will conclude at a nearby coffee shop. WHEN Saturday, November 14, 2026 at 10:00am. The tour will last approximately 90 minutes. WHERE TO MEET The tour will start in front of Toronto Old City Hall (60 Queen St W, Toronto, ON M5H 2M3). WHERE IT ENDS This tour will end at a nearby coffee shop, where you can order coffee/tea/brunch and spend some more time speaking and connecting with fellow historical tour participants. FACILITATOR Alex Rășcanu is a Torontonian, a husband, a father of four, and an avid student of our city's history. Stay in touch with him on LinkedIn / X / Instagram / Facebook / YouTube .

Austentatious: An Improvised Jane Austen Novel

Aga Khan Master Musicians

The Aga Khan Master Musicians create music inspired by their own deep roots in the cultures of the Middle East and Mediterranean Basin, South Asia, Central Asia, and China. Brought together by the Aga Khan Music Programme to explore how musical innovation can contribute to the revitalization of cultural heritage, the Master Musicians are venerated performers and composer-arrangers who appear on the world’s most prestigious stages while also serving as preeminent teachers, mentors, and curators. Each of these exceptional artists has achieved mastery within a rigorous musical tradition defined by canonical styles, repertoires, pedagogy, and performance techniques. At the same time, they share a belief that tradition can serve as an invaluable compass for an artistic search into new forms of creativity inspired, but not constrained, by the past. This search has led to a strikingly original body of work composed, arranged, and performed by the Master Musicians, often joined by distinguished guests. Musicians include Basel Rajoub (Syria – saxophone), Feras Charestan (Syria – qanun), Yurdal Tokcan (Republic of Türkiye – oud), Abbos Kosimov (Uzbekistan – doira frame drum), and Vincent Peirani and Vincent Ségal (France – accordion and cello). After the concert, enjoy a beverage and more music at the Postlude Performance in the Leslie & Anna Dan Galleria. Presented in partnership with the Aga Khan Museum

Gimme Shelter

Remembering The Maysles : November marks the centenary of Albert Maysles, who along with his brother David Maysles are two of the most celebrated American documentarians, vanguards in the late 50s and 70s direct cinema movement, which prized observational cinema, capturing life as it unfolded before their camera. “A stunning film, a sensational piece of filmmaking, a landmark.” – The Hollywood Reporter The landmark documentary about the tragically ill-fated Rolling Stones free concert at Altamont Speedway on December 6, 1969. Only four months earlier, Woodstock defined the Love Generation; now it lay in ruins on a desolate racetrack six miles outside of San Francisco. Before an estimated crowd of 300,000 people, the Stones headlined a free concert featuring Tina Turner, Jefferson Airplane, The Flying Burrito Brothers and others. Concerned about security, members of outlaw biker gang The Hell's Angels were asked to help maintain order. Instead, an atmosphere of fear and dread arose, leading ultimately to the stabbing death of a fan. What began as a flower-power love-in had degenerated into a near riot; frightened, confused faces wondering how the Love Generation could, in one swift, cold-blooded slash, became a generation of disillusionment and disappointment.

The Sunday Antique Market

The Sunday Antique Market returns to the historic Small Arms Inspection Building on Sunday, November 1, bringing together more than 80 curated antique and vintage dealers from Ontario and Quebec for the first of three November markets. Some things simply can't be replicated: the daring lines of modernist jewellery, the beauty of an original painting, the graphic appeal of vintage advertising or the glamour of an Art Deco silver champagne bucket. Objects from another era continue to capture our imagination, influence contemporary tastes and inspire new interpretations. But there's something even more appealing about owning the originals. For more than 30 years, The Sunday Antique Market has brought together collectors, decorators, designers and people who appreciate originality and the pleasure of finding something unexpected. The November 1 market will feature an extensive selection of estate jewellery, mid-century modern design, antique silver, vintage advertising, paintings and decorative antiques spanning decades of changing tastes and creative expression. Exceptional style doesn't have to mean exceptional prices. From affordable vintage finds to remarkable antiques, the market offers pieces that make a statement, reflect personal style and bring something distinctive to a home or collection. This event is organized by an external group and is not produced by the City of Mississauga.

NOSFERATU and THE CABINET OF DR. CALIGARI

Double Feature, one price for both NOSFERATU 2pm THE CABINET OF DOCTOR CALIGARI 3:20pm Original music scores by NASH THE SLASH NOSFERATU: A SYMPHONY OF HORROR (1922) is the legendary silent vampire film that set the standard for horror cinema. Directed by F.W. Murnau and loosely based on Bram Stoker's Dracula, the story follows the eerie Count Orlok as he spreads death and dread in a seaside town. Featuring haunting visuals, stark shadows, and Max Schreck’s unforgettable performance, Nosferatu is the purest distillation of German Expressionism and one of the most influential horror films ever made. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPOtj74BrL8 THE CABINET OF DR. CALIGARI is a 1920 German silent horror film, directed by Robert Wiene and written by Hans Janowitz and Carl Mayer. Considered the quintessential work of German Expressionist cinema, it tells the story of an insane hypnotist (Werner Krauss) who uses a somnambulist (Conrad Veidt) to commit murders. The film features a dark and twisted visual style, with sharp-pointed forms, oblique and curving lines, structures and landscapes that lean and twist in unusual angles, and shadows and streaks of light painted directly onto the sets. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAtpxqajFak NASH THE SLASH composed the musical scores for these and several other classic silent films and would perform them live at each screening. He was a legendary Canadian multi-instrumentalist adept at electric violin and mandolin. Nash was also the first Canadian to ever use a drum machine on an album, while his music was a complex blend of prog, art rock, new wave and performance art. His persona was inspired by a killer butler that featured in the 1927 silent film ‘Do Detectives Think?’ starring Laurel and Hardy. He started performing as a solo artist beginning in 1975 and founded the progressive rock band FM in 1976. His trademark look was covered in surgical bandages.

Benedict Sheehan’s ‘Ukrainian War Requiem’ — The National Tour

The Axios Men’s Ensemble from Edmonton, who have recently secured a historic Juno award, winning for Classical Album of the Year (Large Ensemble) for the recording of their Ukrainian War Requiem, has announced a national tour of nine Canadian cities this November. Composed by two-time Grammy-Nominated Benedict Sheehan, this monumental choral work spans 12 impactful movements that seamlessly blend modern musical styles with ancient chants and traditional Ukrainian motifs. The choral tribute serves as a powerful musical reverence for those affected by the war, offering solace and strength to the living and the grieving, and ultimately providing a solemn space for remembrance and prayer through a skillful and heartfelt tribute to Ukraine and her people. Conducted by Maestro Michael Zaugg, the choir will feature over 50 performers from Axios Men’s Ensemble and Pro Coro Canada, including acclaimed international soloists from North America, Europe, and Ukraine. More than music, the Ukrainian War Requiem is a sombre journey through grief and loss, acting as a fervent reminder of the enduring grace of the human spirit. Secure your seats to join us for an evening of sacred reflection and hope. Doors at 3:30 p.m. $45.00 online General Admission; $50 at the door General Admission; $30 for Students 18 and under

Waterwalker – 4K Restoration with Rebecca Mason

Forty years after its original theatrical release, Bill Mason’s Waterwalker returns to the big screen in a breathtaking new 4K restoration with remastered 5.1 surround sound. Part adventure, part visual poem, the film follows the visionary outdoorsman as he paddles from the vast waters of Lake Superior into the winding rivers and quiet headwaters of the Canadian Shield. Along the way, Mason paints the landscapes that move him and reflects on the enduring relationship between creativity, wilderness and the human spirit. More than a nature documentary, Waterwalker is an invitation to slow down, listen and rediscover the beauty of the world around us. Featuring stunning cinematography and an original score by Bruce Cockburn and Hugh Marsh, this landmark Canadian classic remains as moving today as it was four decades ago, offering audiences a rare opportunity to reconnect with nature through one of Canada’s most beloved NFB films. “We are thrilled with the NFB’s 40th-anniversary restoration and re-release of my father’s masterpiece Waterwalker . He would have been so excited to experience the superb image and sound quality of Waterwalker in 4K. It is remarkable that his message of caring for the land is even more important, timely and relevant 40 years later. Thank you, NFB!” – Rebecca Mason Includes a post-screening Q&A will Rebecca Mason, daughter of Bill Mason. TICKETS (+HST) General: $15 Members: $10, $8, FREE

Qailula – Central & South Asia by Samar Salman & Wania Ahmed

Qailula is an Arabic term used for the nap you take after a big meal, especially when the weather starts to get cold. Your hosts and cooks, Samar and Wania, present a five course meal inspired by the foods of Persia and South Asia using seasonal Canadian ingredients. Between each course they will share their knowledge of their unique cuisine along with bedtime stories to entertain. It will be a night of genuine warmth and comforting foods — a delicious prologue to the coziest of naps. —- Welcome 'Sleepy Girl Sherbet' We will begin with a festive welcome 'mocktail' consisting of calming chamomile infused with pomegranate! A perfect way to set the tone for the dishes to come. Yakhni (Bone Broth) with Fresh Bread The word yakhni is associated with a broth or stock made by simmering meat, bones, herbs, and aromatics. Yakhni asks us to think about nourishment that takes time. The broth is simmered until the liquid has fully soaked up all of the flavour. Rich and hearty this course embraces the concept of rest and that some things cannot be hurried. Slow Cooked Lamb Shank with Kabuli Pulao A decadent gift from Central Asia, this rice pilaf has become the national dish of Afghanistan. Through the migration and arrival of Afghan refugees in Pakistan, it became one of the most known pulaos in that country as well. Bejeweled with essential ingredients of the region such as pistachios, almonds and dried fruits, caramelized carrots are added and the rice soaks up the rich fat and juices from the lamb. Torshi & Kachumbar The word torshi is associated with pickled vegetables, particularly across Persian, Afghan, and Middle Eastern culinary traditions while Kachumbar-style salads are found across South Asian cuisines, generally combining chopped vegetables with acidity and herbs. The sourness and acidity of pickles and the freshness of kachumbar provide contrast to rich dishes. Pomegranate Granita with Basil For a meal built around warmth, fat, meat, rice, and milk, something cold and bright will provide a delicious contrast. Pomegranate has travelled through many of the food cultures that inform this menu, so we use it here in the form of a granita (Italy's semi-frozen treat) as a reset before dessert. Warm Khoya Milk with Mille-Feuille Khoya (aka mawa) is a concentrated dairy product made by slowly reducing milk until much of the water evaporates, leaving behind a dense, rich milk solid. Mille-feuille comes from the French pastry tradition of laminated layers. Both are time-intensive to prepare and they each are rich in dairy. Ending on a warming note to prepare you for an early night's rest. Saunf Parcels Saunf (fennel seeds) are commonly offered after meals across South Asia, particularly in restaurants and homes. They are associated with freshening the mouth. Each diner will get their own parcel to take home. They also help with digestion! BOOK NOW! – $79+HST – https://thedepanneur.ca/products/qailula-a-seasonal-meal-with —- Samar Salman is a chef and food writer based in Toronto, originally from Karachi, Pakistan. She trained at Le Cordon Bleu London and worked at the three-Michelin-starred Lecture Room at Sketch, under Pierre Gagnaire. Alongside her kitchen work, she has spent years running her own South Asian food project, writing essays on the region's ingredients, techniques, and culinary history. Her work sits at the intersection of classical technique and South Asian food culture, covering food systems, culinary tradition, and the politics of what ends up on a plate. At present she is developing a supper club series in Toronto. Wania Ahmed is a chef, researcher, and award-winning community organizer with a Master’s in Food Studies from NYU, focusing on the intersections of food, sustainability, and sociology. She has worked to create New Hampshire’s Food and Agriculture Strategic Plan in the US. Born and raised in Karachi, and having lived and worked in four different countries on food, Wania loves to learn about food from its people, places, and politics. She has recently moved to Toronto and is currently working as a researcher and supper club host, exploring the sociology of food, culinary traditions, and the relationships between food, culture, and society.

Naghash Ensemble, Karen Ouzounian, and the Amadeus Choir

A magical evening of Armenian music direct from Yerevan, and the Canadian premiere of Dear Mountains , a recent work for chorus, solo cello, oud, and percussion, co-composed by the RCM alumna and Silk Road Ensemble member Karen Ouzounian and Lembit Beecher. “East meets West and antiquity meets modernity in this collection of ruminations, lamentations, and incantations. Highly intriguing yet accessible.” ( NPR ) The Naghash Ensemble combines the earthy spirituality of Armenian folk songs, new classical music, and contemporary post-minimalism with the energy of rock and jazz. Three brilliant female vocalists and some of Armenia’s finest instrumentalists on duduk, oud, dhol, and piano play captivating new music based on sacred texts by the medieval Armenian mystic poet and priest Mkrtich Naghash. Sought after for her “radiant” ( The New York Times ) performances full of “tremendous heart, bringing joy and a captivating sound to the stage” ( The Strad ), Karen Ouzounian is a Grammy Award nominated cellist and composer who creates music from a deeply personal place. An omnivorous musical spirit who “powerfully shatters pigeonholes with her artistic partners” (Ravinia Magazine) , she has premiered numerous works and collaborated with some of the most singular musicians of our time, including Yo-Yo Ma, Rhiannon Giddens, and Augustin Hadelich. She will present Dear Mountains , a major work composed by her and Lembit Beecher in 2024 that juxtaposes stories told and retold in Ouzounian’s family with scenes of music-making across the Armenian diaspora over the last 100 years, as seen through archival recordings and writings. Dear Mountains features Ouzounian on cello, Ara Dinkjian on oud, Philip Mayer on percussion, and the Amadeus Choir led by Kathleen Allan. Led by Artistic Director Kathleen Allan, the Amadeus Choir champions the best of choral music and premieres works of Canadian and international composers through a self-produced Toronto concert series, guest performances, and special events. The Choir regularly commissions work from high-profile and emerging Canadian composers and recently established the Choral Creation Lab, a residency for composers and poets to co-create original works. Please join us! This concert is preceded by a short performance by talented students of The Royal Conservatory. Prelude Recital starts at 7pm.

Wattstax

The legendary "Black Woodstock" gets its due with a restored and digitally remixed Wattstax , Mel Stuart's documentary of the epochal 1972 concert at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. Featuring incendiary performances by Isaac Hayes, Albert King, Rufus and Carla Thomas, the Staple Singers, the Emotions, the Bar-Kays, and other greats of soul, R&B, and gospel — plus biting humor from a then little-known Richard Pryor — Wattstax is more than a concert film. It also captures a heady moment in mid-1970s, "Black-is-beautiful" African-American culture, when Los Angeles's Black community came together just seven years after the Watts riots to celebrate its survival and a renewed hope in its future. – PBS’s POV TICKETS (+HST) General: $15 Members: $10, $8, FREE

Greek Seafood with Peter Minaki

Greek cooking has always been shaped by the sea: fish tavernas on every harbour, a meze table built around octopus, squid and roe, and the best fish cooked whole and cracked open at the table. In this class, Peter Minaki, the Greek-Canadian food blogger and author of the Everything Mediterranean Cookbook, shares his tips and tricks for some of his favourite Greek seafood dishes. Four classics, in the spirit of the Mediterranean table. —– The Best Taramosalata with Warm Pita Bread Taramosalata starts with tarama, the salted, cured roe of the carp (or cod, or grey mullet), whipped with lemon and olive oil into a silky spread. A tavern fixture since Byzantine times and a Clean Monday tradition, Peter's is made with carp roe and served with warm pita. Tender Octopus, Slowly Braised and Broiled, with Santorini Fava Purée Greek fishermen once tenderized octopus with muscle and sun. Peter's route suits a home kitchen: a slow braise until tender, then a turn under the broiler until just crisp. It sits on a velvety purée of Santorini fava, made not from fava beans but from a legume grown in the island's volcanic soil since antiquity. Fried Calamari with a Squeeze of Lemon A favourite Greek meze, served in every fish tavern (psarotaverna) with a squeeze of lemon. The secret is speed: squid needs only a couple of minutes in hot oil before it turns rubbery. Whole European Sea Bass (Branzino) Roasted in a Salt Crust The showstopper. A whole branzino is packed in coarse salt and roasted, and the crust seals in moisture and steams the fish in its own juices. The method is ancient, with a version in the writings of Archestratus in the 4th century BCE. A light meal of samples of all the dishes demonstrated, along with refreshments, is served during the class. —– BOOK NOW! – $79 + HST – https://thedepanneur.ca/products/cooking-class-greek-seafood-with-peter-minaki —– Peter Minaki is a proud Greek Canadian and the creator of the popular Kalofagas (the Greek word for "gourmet.") Greek Food blog. Peter started the blog because he wanted to introduce the world to the delicious depths of Greek cuisine. Known for adding twists to his recipes, Peter balances his posts between traditional, modernized and his own unique recipes. Gathering inspiration from his yearly trips to Greece, Peter endlessly promotes the diversity of Greek cuisine. Living in Toronto and having a curious spirit, he refers to himself as "a tourist in his own town." He welcomes every opportunity to try new foods and different cuisines. @kalofagas | kalofagas.ca —– The Depanneur is where Interesting Food Things happen.

The Mad Dog of Europe

In 1932, Herman J. Mankiewicz—who would become famous 10 years later for writing the screenplay of Citizen Kane—wrote The Mad Dog of Europe , an anti-Nazi film project depicting the implosion of a German-Jewish family at the dawn of Hitler’s rise to power. This visionary script was ultimately buried by Hollywood studios, caught between diplomatic pressure and economic interests, and was never produced.

Jamaican Patties & Coconut Drops by Avery Billy

The Jamaican Patty, a colonial-era Caribbean take on the English Cornish pasty, has evolved from a regional speciality to a snack popular around the world. With their flaky, golden, turmeric-tinted pastry and spicy, savoury beef filling with hints of thyme and scotch bonnet pepper they have become an indelible and beloved fixture of Toronto food landscape. But this wasn't always the case – in the 1980's the Canadian government got into a tangle with Toronto's Jamaican community in what became known as the "Patty Wars" — see the great CBC mini doc Patty vs. Patty for the whole story. While your patties are baking, you'll learn how to make Coconut Drops (sometimes called simply "drops"), a popular traditional Jamaican confection made from diced fresh coconut, ginger, and brown sugar, known for their sweet, chewy texture and the distinctive heat of fresh ginger. In this fun, hands-on class Chef Avery Billy will walk you through all the steps to make both these tropical treats, from making the dough and fillings, to shaping and baking the pies. Participants will learn a bit of history of these dishes, tips on sourcing ingredients, snack on freshly baked treats in class, and get to take home samples of both dishes. (Vegetarian filling available on request). BOOK NOW! – $79+HST – https://thedepanneur.ca/products/cooking-class-jamaican-patties-by-avery-billy-1_nov22 —– Chef Avery Billy is a driven professional cook with a passion for crafting unforgettable dining experiences. Drawing inspiration from his Caribbean heritage and international cuisines. Full of energy, he creates dishes from his heart that tell a flavorful story of his roots. @gb_hospitality_toronto
