Stand-up comedian, based in Ottawa, ON, ready for your comedy show or corporate event.
Born in small-town Ontario and moved to Toronto, Todd Van Allen traded life from the provincial capital to the nation’s capital. Based in Ottawa, Canada, Todd’s comedy is sourced locally and delivered globally through 23 seasons of his podcast “Comedy Above the Pub”, and his new podcast “Okay, So Here’s One!: A Podcast Celebrating Street Jokes”. His ongoing comedy roast show “Write Em Up!” still continues to this day. Todd’s performance grapples with relationships, society, aging and trying to take a picture on his stupid phone. Both his albums “Really?” and “Butterflies” debuted #1 on the iTunes comedy charts and both can be heard on SiriusXM. It’s no wonder he’s headlined across North America and Europe, having performed at the #JFL42 Festival five times as well as the Melbourne Comedy Festival and the Edinburgh Festival.
