Patrick Madison: A Live Comedy Special Taping

Get Tickets

Join us on Saturday, January 10th for a very special evening of stand-up comedy with one of our absolute favorite comedians, Patrick Madison. We are so honored that Pat chose our main stage to record his first comedy special, and we hope you’ll come out and show some love for one of the hardest working comics in the scene today. 

Pat will take the stage at 7pm and 9pm. Grab your friends, especially the ones with the loudest laughs, and help us make this a show to remember!

Pat staggered into the comedy scene in 2017, grinding his way from one bar basement to the next, slowly but surely climbing the ranks to become a mainstay in the Middle America comedy circuit. With his clever, quirky, and brutally honest style, he has become a fixture at Funny Farm and Funny Stop, where audiences connect with his embarrassing and relatable humor.

Taking his comedy nationwide, Patrick launched the Double Chuckle Comedy Tour, bringing his unique brand of humor to over 200 cities across the United States. His dedication to the craft and relentless touring schedule earned him a feature in a best-selling book about road comics, and multiple Cleveland Comedy Award nominations, solidifying his place among the hardest-working comedians in the industry.

As always, the  Second April Studios will be open prior to the show, and we encourage you to visit our website for a list of restaurants and shops within walking distance of the show!

Canton Comedy Boom Presents: Kids Doing Comedy on Sunday February 22nd!

Join us for this in-person comedy extravaganza! This talented group of kids, aged 4-12, will take the stage to deliver stand-up, funny stories, and sketch comedy!

Thanks to a generous grant from ArtsinStark, we are able to offer workshops, performance showcases, and a Kids Doing Comedy Tour at local senior living facilities to continue for the next year. We couldn't be more grateful, because it will allow us to expand the program beyond what we could do alone. We are so excited to invite experienced theater, improv, and stand-up instructors to share their expertise with the next generation of comedy stars!

This is the seventh time CCB has hosted Kids Doing Comedy, and the kids have been hard at work writing new material and rehearsing new sketches in our workshops. They’re so excited to take the stage again.

Email cantoncomedyboom@gmail.com if interested in registering your young comedian for the workshops and/or performances.

Our workshops are offered at no cost to parents thanks to ArtsinStark. There’s no pressure to perform, kids are welcome to attend the workshops without committing to performing on the day of the show. If you have a theater kid who loves to make a room laugh, this is a unique opportunity for them to experiment with both theater and comedy in a safe and supportive environment.

Kids Doing Comedy is a great way to support young talent and enjoy an afternoon of family-friendly entertainment.

The Second April Studios will be open, and we encourage you to visit our website for a list of restaurants and shops within walking distance of the show!

Canton Comedy Boom Presents: Kids Doing Comedy on Sunday, May 17th!

Join us for this in-person comedy extravaganza! This talented group of kids, aged 4-12, will take the stage to deliver stand-up, funny stories, and sketch comedy!

Thanks to a generous grant from ArtsinStark, we are able to offer workshops, performance showcases, and a Kids Doing Comedy Tour at local senior living facilities to continue for the next year. We couldn't be more grateful, because it will allow us to expand the program beyond what we could do alone. We are so excited to invite experienced theater, improv, and stand-up instructors to share their expertise with the next generation of comedy stars!

This is the eighth time CCB has hosted Kids Doing Comedy, and the kids have been hard at work writing new material and rehearsing new sketches in our workshops. They’re so excited to take the stage again.

Email cantoncomedyboom@gmail.com if interested in registering your young comedian for the workshops and/or performances.

Our workshops are offered at no cost to parents thanks to ArtsinStark. There’s no pressure to perform, kids are welcome to attend the workshops without committing to performing on the day of the show. If you have a theater kid who loves to make a room laugh, this is a unique opportunity for them to experiment with both theater and comedy in a safe and supportive environment.

Kids Doing Comedy is a great way to support young talent and enjoy an afternoon of family-friendly entertainment.

The Second April Studios will be open, and we encourage you to visit our website for a list of restaurants and shops within walking distance of the show!

Join Canton Comedy Boom on Saturday, December 6th for a night of hilarious stand-up comedy with Cleveland comedy legend, Bill Squire!

In 2004, at age 22, Bill Squire was just your regular old excommunicated Mormon missionary trying to find his way through life. Returning from a two-year-long Mormon mission in the Philippines, Bill found his voice on stage traveling the country telling jokes as he relentlessly pursued stage time.

Bill has several comedy specials and albums that have been viewed and listened to millions of times. He has been seen on Comedy Central, and has appeared on tv shows like Laughs on Fox and Hulu. From 2013 to 2024 Bill co-hosted The Alan Cox Show, an afternoon drive talk show on 100.7 WMMS in Cleveland.

He has become a part of a larger family of millions of devoted listeners/viewers on iHeartRadio, SiriusXM, Pandora, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Stitcher. He also co-hosts his wildly popular podcast Cleveland America with friends Tommi LC and OkPants.

Bill is bringing two of Cleveland’s funniest comedians and showrunners, Alex MacLeod and Brett Thomas. Check out all the performer bios here.

As always, the Second April Studios and shops will be open before the show, and we encourage you to visit our website for a list of bars, restaurants, and shops within walking distance of the show!

Canton Comedy Boom Presents: Kids Doing Comedy on Sunday November 16th!

Join us for this in-person comedy extravaganza! This talented group of kids, aged 4-12, will take the stage to deliver stand-up, funny stories, and sketch comedy!

Thanks to a generous grant from ArtsinStark, we are able to offer workshops, performance showcases, and a Kids Doing Comedy Tour at local senior living facilities to continue for the next year. We couldn't be more grateful, because it will allow us to expand the program beyond what we could do alone. We are so excited to invite experienced theater, improv, and stand-up instructors to share their expertise with the next generation of comedy stars!

This is the sixth time CCB has hosted Kids Doing Comedy, and the kids have been hard at work writing new material and rehearsing new sketches in our workshops. They’re so excited to take the stage again.

E mail cantoncomedyboom@gmail.com if interested in registering your young comedian for the workshops and/or performances.

Our workshops are offered at no cost to parents thanks to ArtsinStark. There’s no pressure to perform, kids are welcome to attend the workshops without performing on the day of the show. If you have a theater kid who loves to make a room laugh, this is a unique opportunity for them to experiment with both theater and comedy in a safe and supportive environment.

Kids Doing Comedy is a great way to support young talent and enjoy an afternoon of family-friendly entertainment.

As always, we encourage you to visit our website for a list of restaurants and shops within walking distance of the show!

Oops! All Weirdos: A Comedy Fundraiser

Get Tickets

Join Canton Comedy Boom on Saturday, November 8th for Oops! All Weirdos – a comedy show dedicated to the memory of our dear friend and fellow performer, Andrew Burge.

Andrew was one of the wildest, weirdest, and most wonderful comedians. Audiences never knew what to expect when he took the stage. Sometimes he’d sing goofy songs about his crushes on fast food mascots, sometimes he’d tell hopefully-made-up stories about eating glue to make his poop sticky, and sometimes he’d just get up and start reading from Thus Spoke Zarathustra. He called himself Dr. Yogurt and wrote his own theme song. His imagination was endless, his heart was huge, and his laughter is sorely missed by all of us here at CCB.

A few months ago, Andrew helped us come up with a show specifically built for comedians like him, who made their audiences hold their breath to see what they’d come up with next. Sadly, Andrew passed away before he was able to see the show come to fruition. It is with the blessing of his closest friends and family that the show goes on.

Oops! All Weirdos is a comedy showcase featuring some of the smartest, zaniest, most absurd and off-the-wall comedians we know. In Andrew’s honor, we present the comedic stylings of four wacky minds he was excited to work with – Gabe Lavictoire, Jo Rou, Angelo Maneage, and Dezhawn France – who are sure to bring us laughs in the most unexpected form. 

Proceeds from this show will benefit the Burge family’s charity of choice, Comedy Gives Back, a non-profit organization that provides grants to stand-up comedians for financial crisis, mental health therapy, and chemical dependency treatment. 

We hope you’ll join us as we honor our friend and raise money for this great cause.

As always, the Second April gallery and shops will be open prior to the show, and we encourage you to visit our website for a list of bars, restaurants, and shops within walking distance of the show!
