Desc: Fade to Brown: Directed by Maninder Chana. With Amish Patel, Jessie Gabe, Bobby Umar, Daniel Stolfi. Fade to Brown premiered in Toronto in late 2006 as a live sketch comedy show with a South Asian flavor. The troupe quickly propelled itself into the hearts of Torontonians, becoming one of the most popular sketch troupes in the city. With the launch of their television pilot, Fade to Brown is taking their wicked humor from stage to the small screen. Featuring a spicy masala of outrageous and groundbreaking comedy, the troupe has developed a reputation for walking the thin line between edginess and humor. In this premiering episode, the troupe explores the absurdity of a variety of themes, including relationships, family dynamics, and cultural identity. Sparked by rising comedic stars from different backgrounds, the Fade to Brown team features a diverse cast of writers, actors, singers, and improv comedians, including Amish Patel, Jessie Gabe, Bobby Umar, Daniel Stolfi, and Shawn Ahmed.
