Note: I recommend you buy your tickets as soon as possible, as the good shows always sell out in advance.

On Saturday, July 4th, see Evie & Alfie: A British Love Story, and Winner Outstanding English Production at the Montreal Fringe 2025. Meet Evie & Alfie—a retired, quintessentially British couple—as they potter around their house, drinking tea, bird spotting and reminiscing. From multiple award-winning Fringe legends Alex Dallas (Horseface, Sensible Footwear) and Jimmy Hogg (The Potato King) comes a comedy full of wit, verve and heart. When I googled the top 10 shows to watch at the Toronto Fringe, this is the one I chose. We will start off with a hot beverage at Balzacs prior to heading to the show around the corner.

Alex Dallas is a writer and actor from London, England who has been living and working in Canada for the past 30-years. As a founder member of female comedy troupe, Sensible Footwear, she has toured the world. Her one woman shows, Goddess, and Drama Queen, aired on CBC TV, The W Network, Bravo TV and CBC Radio Jimmy Hogg is a writer, comedian and storyteller from Plymouth, UK, who has made his name on the Fringe circuit over the last 20-years with his high-energy, physical, tangential style. Comparisons to Eddie Izzard, Rik Mayall, John Oliver (and other British people) are frequent if not always accurate or deserved. He has numerous awards and merits and is an 18x BEST OF FRINGE WINNER. Purchase Evie & Alfie: A British Love Story on Saturday, July 4th at noon.
