COMEDY: Having just been nominated for four Canadian Comedy Awards, Monkey Toast: The Improvised Talk Show is still going strong after several years as one of Toronto's foremost comedy shows. The premise is simple: the host, David Shore, interviews a few local celebrities (past guests include Mayor David Miller, writer/actor Don McKellar, and musician Peaches), and then a team of improvisers create skits based on the interviews. Tonight, musician Big Rude Jake, Susan Fischer character Evelyn Reese, NDP leader Jack Layton, and MP Olivia Chow will sit down with Shore. The Gladstone Hotel Ballroom (1214 Queen Street West), 8 p.m. (doors at 7:30 p.m.), pay-what-you-can.
