Calgary, AB

If Calgary had an underground comedy scene, and if an underground comedy scene could be one person, then Sarah Adams might be it. You may catch her in an art gallery basement or a scrappy rock n roll variety show, occasionally surfacing for sketch shows, stand-up competitions, and fundraisers. At Sled Island 2012 she opened for Todd Barry, Natasha Leggero, Tim Heidecker and Neil Hamburger, and from there went to an experimental comedy residency at The Banff Centre to work with Michael Portnoy, Ieva Misevičiūtė and Reggie Watts. She currently hosts a comedy-focused radio show called Don't Smile on CJSW 90.9FM.
