Leslie Hetherington

Comedian/Storyteller

Leslie is an expressive comedian, storyteller and misfit who passionately collides with the quirky side of life. After semi-retiring from a PR career, she dove into comedy last year. In addition to doing stand-up around Toronto, she’s shared stories at Replay Storytelling, the Comedy Bar, and way back, at the Hard Rock Café. And a lifetime ago, Leslie honed her stage legs at Canada’s Wonderland, where she told tales with eight macaws, frequently ad-libbing as the plot shifted with the birds’ moods.

Nads

Comedian

Nads is an employment lawyer by day and a stand-up comedian by night. Her comedy journey started in the most unexpected place: a public washroom line. When a stranger asked her what her hobbies were, Nads panicked — not only because a stranger was talking to her, but also because she realised she didn’t have any! Since then, she’s been making up for lost time on Toronto’s open mic scene, competing in comedy contests, and producing fundraising shows under the banner Laugh It Forward.

Sandra Muscat

Storyteller

Sandra Muscat fell in love with storytelling as a kid, producing, writing, directing and starring in epic productions for the neighbourhood kids in her parents’ garage, with zero budget and even less permission. She’s been telling it like it is ever since: as a writer, improviser, actor, and storyteller. She’s told stories at Replay Storytelling, Tales at the Tranzac, Sweet Action Theatre, and the John Candy Box Theatre. She also reads tarot cards for a living, which means she’s professionally qualified to tell you what’s wrong with your life. But her stories are mostly about what’s wrong with hers.
