Synopsis

Ron, a socially inept insomniac, takes to the streets of Toronto each night to cope with his disorder. He continually finds himself surrounded by the nighthawks, ne’er-do-wells, and people stuck working the graveyard shift; all played by six-member sketch troupe Cash Grab.

Toronto After Dark presents a series of comedic premises that loosely connect to show all the absurd stories taking place in a single night in the city. Each episode features original characters, parodies pop-culture, and satirizes politics throughout Canadian night-time history. At night.

Toronto After Dark is sketch comedy on its fifth cup of coffee and will make you reconsider leaving your door unlocked.

(At night).

I've seen these idiots perform live, and let me tell you... it is something to behold. 6 creative geniuses working together in perfect harmony and the results are hysterical. As hardworking and professional as they are silly and insane, these dinguses are extremely deserving of the top prize. Come on, Canada! Give these kids a shot!
