Big Chick Energy: My best friend's sketch show
This show, part of The Toronto Sketch Comedy Festival, is a friendship bracelet in the form of a sketch revue, a pinky promise to be best friends forever, a cootie catcher filled with possibilities! Big Chick Energy is back with an ode to your chosen family, the real ones who have your back through breakups, breakdowns, and breakthroughs. It's dedicated to your ultimate hype person, the ride or die who holds your hair back in the bathroom, the one who lets you hang out the passenger side during life's scrubbiest moments. This light-hearted, downright silly, and occasionally musical show will keep audiences laughing and wishing for more.
Big Chick Energy (BCE) is an all-woman comedy troupe that infuses their bubbly personalities into high energy sketch and improv shows. These five Chicks from Toronto and Hamilton love creating comedy from a place of joy to offer their audiences an uplifting experience – but they don't shy away from a good fart joke either! At a BCE show you can expect to see silly and satirical sketches through an effervescent feminist lens that clucks the status quo, ruffles a few feathers, and features an egg shaker or two.
BCE is the proud recipient of TOSketchfest's 2023 Producers' Pick Award, and produced a sold-out Halloween sketch comedy revue, ‘Ghouls Just Wanna Have Fun'. BCE is always on the move, performing in a variety of notable sketch and improv shows (Beer Beer Comedy, Wide Variety, Staircase Comedy Cabaret) throughout Toronto and Hamilton. Individually they are Alicia Carrick, Sam Sexton, Julia Jones, Emily Milling and Jo Anne Tacorda.
