For our money, Matt Wright is one of the funniest guys in Canadian comedy. Apparently, others think so too because his first show sold out. So we’re thrilled to be able to say he will be performing a second stand-up show at The Carleton on Wednesday, October 28th. Show time is 9:30 PM and tickets are only $20.

***If you want to sit with others who have purchased their tickets separately, please email reservations@thecarleton.ca with the names***
