The Second City Training Center is proud to announce the launch of the Joe Flaherty Memorial Scholarship, a new initiative honouring the life and legacy of celebrated comedian, actor and writer Joe Flaherty. A beloved alumnus of The Second City’s storied stages in both Chicago and Toronto, Flaherty’s career helped define a generation of comedy. Before beginning that journey, he served four years in the United States Air Force, a meaningful chapter of his life that this scholarship seeks to recognize and celebrate.
Beginning in 2026, The Second City Training Center will award four full scholarships to veterans and active servicepeople in the United States and Canada, supported by a $5,000 USD endowment established in Flaherty’s name. One full scholarship will be awarded annually at each of The Second City’s Chicago and Toronto Training Centers in both 2026 and 2027.
Each scholarship recipient will receive full tuition for The Second City’s signature 5-level Improv Program, an intensive, 10-month training experience built on the foundations of unscripted performance. Through guided instruction in spontaneity, collaboration, and comedic storytelling, students gain the skills and confidence to create from a place of joy and play. The final two levels culminate in public performances, giving students the opportunity to showcase their growth on stage.
“Joe Flaherty’s body of comedic work is nothing short of iconic. He was also a mentor and teacher to so many who have gone on to become household names,” said Julie Dumais Osborne, VP, Second City Training Centers. “We’re honoured to help new voices begin their own comedic journeys in his name and to be able to offer this opportunity to folks who’ve dedicated their lives to the service of others.”
How to Apply
Veterans and active servicepeople from the U.S. and Canada are invited to apply online through the Second City Training Center website.

About The Second City Toronto
The Second City first brought its iconic improv and sketch comedy to Toronto in 1963 for a week of performances at the Royal Alexandra Theatre. After a decade of sold out shows at the 1200-seat theatre, The Second City established a permanent home in the city with the opening of “The Old Firehall” on Lombard Street. In 1976, The Second City Toronto further solidified its place in comedy history by creating the groundbreaking television show SCTV.
In December 2022, The Second City began an exciting new chapter by relocating to its state-of-the-art facility at One York Street. This move introduced three distinct theatres: The Mainstage, Theatre ’73, and The John Candy Box Theatre, each offering nightly performances that continue The Second City’s tradition of bringing laughter to audiences.
Since making a home in Toronto over 50 years ago The Second City has grown to become the most influential name in comedy launching the careers of countless Canadian comedy legends.
