Val

Comedian

Ava Val is a comedian/musician/actress from Toronto. Her honest and insightful-yet-silly & spontaneous account of her transgender journey has turned heads across North America, 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.
Though she has taped numerous standup performances for CBC Gem, Crave, & CTV, has a new standup comedy special So Brave out June 2024, hosts her own podcast “PodGis”, and was a lead cast member on OutTV’s Drag Heals season 3, Ava Val is surely an act that must be seen in person to be believed – and celebrated!
