Description

Potential's premiere in 2019 was a memorable one. Jack Hirschfield creates an environment for top-drawer audience participation. On the last run, there was a drunk magician performing slop of hand. A woman going through a breakup and singing about it. And a bald man storming the stage and giving everyone dating advice. Potential's goal is to create a unique environment every night. Accompanying Jack will be Canada's top comedic talent with a different line-up every night. Don't miss this gorgeous evening of stand-up comedy.
