Roundtable Sessions

Roundtable Sessions

Roundtable discussions are informal, one-hour sessions where a key industry stakeholder leads a small group of approximately 10 passholders, creating a space for honest dialogue and tailored advice. Hosted by some of the comedy industry’s leading professionals, these curated discussions are designed to help comedy professionals & creators sharpen their skills, expand their networks, and gain invaluable insight into the ever-evolving entertainment landscape.

As audiences shift and diversify, so too must the characters and worlds we build in comedy. Join CBC Comedy’s Sarah Quan for a conversation about creating series rooted in character, community, and specificity. Discover how CBC evaluates new voices, why grounded stories often resonate most, and how to develop comedy that reflects lived experience while still entertaining broad audiences.

Hosted by Sarah Quan (Executive in Charge of Development, CBC Comedy)
