Toronto's famousSecond City comedy clubreturns this weekend as it moves into its temporary home at 2800 Danforth Avenue.
It also happens to be the second home ofComedy Bar, the popular venue that has long had a home in Bloorcourt.

The new space will be able to seat about 170 people for previews of the new mainstage showWelcome Back to the Futurestarting this weekend.
Italian bakery and pizza placeMattachionihas temporarily moved into the kitchen so there will be food and drinks available for purchase on site.
On Monday, Second City launches a brand new edition of their fan-favourite holiday show titledFast and the Furiously Festive.
For those who prefer standup comedy over sketch and improv,Comedy Bar Danforthwill also be debuting a new show with Dave Merheje (Mr. D, Ramy) on Dec. 12.
Second City will be calling this location home for most of the next year, but hopes to move intotheir permanent new location at 1 York Streetsometime in 2022.
"We're working away at York Street and are expecting some time in the third quarter of 2022 that Second City will be opening at that space," Gary Rideout Jr, Director of Business Development at Second City Toronto told blogTO.
Until then, Second City will be calling Comedy Bar Danforth home as those looking to laugh after a hectic couple years will have better options available than the company that made Canadian icons like Mike Myers, Colin Mochrie and Gilda Radner famous.
