Jonathan Dion is a Franco-Ontarian comedian, improviser, and host from Clarence Creek in Eastern Ontario. He began his comedy journey through improvisation in his teens and continued to pursue this passion while studying at the University of Ottawa. Since 2017, he has been performing full-time on stage — blending stand-up, improv, and hosting — and has become well-known in the Outaouais region and Eastern Ontario. Jonathan stands out for his accessible and versatile style, able to adapt to a wide range of audiences: bars, festivals, schools, and community events. Committed to the Franco-Ontarian minority community, he also supports the next generation as a trainer for the comedy competition LOL – Mort de rire, helping young people engage with the Franco-Ontarian comedy scene.

On the Quebec comedy scene since 2007, Eddy King has appeared in all the major galas. No kidding—he’s everywhere! With his calm, grounded, and never-stressed style (lucky guy), his humor hits even harder thanks to punchlines that can knock out any audience. Guided by his convictions and principles, Eddy takes pride in standing tall on stage and on television. On TV, you may have seen him in Dans ma tête, Les pêcheurs, as well as in Denys Arcand’s film The Fall of the American Empire. Most recently, he was also part of the second season of the hugely popular reality show Big Brother Célébrités.

Stephanie is a critically acclaimed Franco-Canadian multidisciplinary artist who has toured recognized festivals, theaters, and schools all across the globe. Her work as a performing artist has been celebrated by a wide range of audiences, critics, and producers, with sold-out runs, raving 5-star reviews, and multiple awards underlining her outstanding talent, professionalism and charm. Her career as a performing artist and creator began in 2002 when she was asked to join Tout Feu Tout Flamme, a touring Franco-Canadian musical theater company with whom she toured for 4 years of the company’s original works while completing her high school education correspondence on the road. After graduating from Concordia University with a degree in Performance and Contemporary Dance, Stephanie was recognized as the most outstanding graduate for her expansive interpretation of choreography and her ability to cultivate an interest in creating work that merges technology and dance to enhance her audience's theatrical experience. Coming And Going, Bear Dreams and Within | Between Her award-winning productions are Coming And Going, BLINDSIDE (2014), Bear Dreams (2015), Within | Between, Eye Candy (2016), The Merkin Sisters (2017), Bushel and Peck (2018), INK (2019), UNDERBELLY (2022), and BLACK EYE (2022). She is also currently leading long form mentorship program titled “Touring Readiness” for the Manitoba and Saskatoon art networks and is the Artistic Director on Winnipeg’s IN/ON/OUT Interarts Festival that will be holding their second edition in partnership with Theatre Cercle Moliere this coming March 2023.

Born on February 10, 1965, in Chicoutimi, Quebec, Mario Jean is a Quebecois comedian and actor. He graduated in 1991 from the National School of Humor and quickly made a name for himself with his first character, the newsboy “Ti‑Guy Beaudoin,” followed by solo shows that blend humor, reflections on everyday life, and sensitivity. Since 1995, Mario Jean has been involved in a wide range of projects — stand-up, television, film, and theater — building a remarkable longevity in the Quebec comedy scene. His humor, often described as warm, accessible, and inclusive, resonates with audiences of all generations. Still active today, he recently presented his seventh solo show, Les imparfaits bonheurs… et autres tutti quanti de la vie!, in which he humorously and candidly explores the ups and downs of life, aging, relationships, and the little “imperfect joys” of daily life.
