Comedy Bar is already home to Friday night 8 p.m. mainstay Catch23 Improv, the city’s most consistently funny “competitive” improv weekly. But this week, it’ll be followed by Two Strikes All-Stars, an “ultimate comedy showdown” that promoters promise is “the MEANEST show in the city.” We can’t speak to the actual level of comedic spite, but looking at a lineup that includes Second City alumnus Nigel Downer, past Torontoist hero Alice Moran, and Bonspiel Theatre’s Rob Baker, we’re confident in saying that Catch23 and Two Strikes will be the best death-match improv show double bill we’ve seen in some time.
