Odd Wednesday is a monthly alt comedy showcase, featuring the funniest performers in Edmonton doing their weirdest and wildest material. Since 2016, the show has been a space for comedians to step out of their comfort zones and push their creative boundaries. Sketch comedy, character pieces, musical comedy, performance art… if it’s too bold and bizarre for any other show, you’ll find it here. Produced and hosted by local sketch comedy darlings the Debutantes, you never know what you’ll see on Odd Wednesday.

Our headliner for April has written, directed and performed countless smash hits at the Edmonton Fringe, and is a household name in the local theatre and comedy scenes due to her prolific output of incredible, hilarious, and critically-acclaimed work. Whether you know her from the sensationally sacrilegious Jesus Teaches Us Things, the circus fever dream that is Merk Du Soleil, her string of madcap musicals (including River City, Scoob, and the Unsyncables), or you’re just discovering her for the first time, you’re definitely going to love Rebecca Merkley! And as if that wasn’t enough, we’ve also got bawdy burlesque from Cruella Corbeau, hilarious hijinks from Sorbet the Clown, and side-splitting sketch from HAM. A multi-disciplinary menagerie of merriment and mirth? Now that’s ODD!
