Ava Val
Ava Val is a comedian/musician/actress from Toronto; therefore the following credits will mean nothing if you are an American, so trust me when I say this Canadian woman has been around.
Ava’s honest and insightful-yet-silly & spontaneous account of her transgender journey has turned heads across Canada, earning her repeat appearances at renowned festivals such as Just For Laughs, JFL Toronto and Vancouver, Off-JFL/Zoofest, the Winnipeg and Ha!ifax Comedy Festivals, The Arctic Comedy Festival, and many others, as well as earned her a writing role on the 30th season of “This Hour Has 22 Minutes” and a spot on “Roast Battle Canada” season four. Even after the US-CAN conversion rate, that’s a lot of credits.
She has taped numerous standup performances for CBC Gem, Crave, CTV, CBC Radio’s Laugh Out Loud, has a new standup comedy special “So Brave” available on YouTube, hosts her own podcast “PodGis”, and was a lead cast member on OutTV’s “Drag Heals” season 3. Now setting her sights on the USA, Ava brings her clever, endearing, high-energy and honest act to the SF Comedy Competition in search of glory – or at least a husband and a green card.
