The EndZone Bar and Grill will host the Danger Cats comedy troupe on Friday, Feb. 7, 2025.
Hamilton's Levity Comedy Club has cancelled this weekend's two shows by Danger Cats, prompting the controversial comedy troupe to book at a bar in the Ontario city. Levity is the latest Canadian venue to back out of hosting the Alberta-based comics.The EndZone Bar and Grill will host the Danger Cats in Hamilton on Friday after a comedy club in the city cancelled the controversial comedy troupe.
"The good news is, our good friend Jason Rouse, the jester of Hell, has lined up a new venue for us," Blacquier said in a video posted online on Sunday, noting the troupe will perform at EndZone Bar and Grill in Hamilton's east end this Friday. The troupe has performances booked in other Canadian cities in the coming weeks.
Levity booker and manager Patrick Coppolino did not respond to CBC Hamilton's requests to explain why he booked and then cancelled the two shows.Caitlin Craven, executive director of the Hamilton Centre for Civic Inclusion, said several people concerned about the shows brought the comedy troupe to her attention.
Blacquier's social media posts target numerous marginalized groups and refer to the Danger Cats' shows as "desensitivity training."In an interview unrelated to Danger Cats, comedian Kliph Nesteroff spoke to CBC previously about the idea that people are too sensitive today., he said his research found society today in fact allows much more freedom of expression than it did in the past.
