Steph Tolev was born and raised in Toronto. But she’s a Los Angeles–based standup comedian now. Sounds so much more exotic, doesn’t it?

Her comedy knows no boundaries, though. Literally. She’ll say anything on-stage. Tolev is as raw and honest as they come. Named the best female standup at the 2015 Canadian Comedy Awards, she has been entertaining crowds (and making some wince) for a decade, since graduating from Humber, Toronto’s famed comedy college.

Her album, Hot N’ Hungry, was released earlier this year, but you can catch her live from Thursday to Saturday (September 15 to 17) at the Comedy MIX.

And for no extra charge, you get feature act Kyle Bottom and emcee Charlie Demers.
