The show takes place at S.E.T., a show produced by the Second City as a venue to perform experimental theatre for students and professionals alike.

2006 was the year that saw Darren pack his bags in Vancouver, Canada and move to the bright and flashing lights of Las Vegas in the United States of America. After returning to Vancouver to complete his previous commitment as the lead role in the short film "The Dinner Party" for a week in January, Darren landed in Vegas and made it his home. During that time this website was born and the green card process started. The Inedibles Comedy Troupe picked up Darren to perform improvisation with coach Craig Uhlir of The Second City. Darren’s work authoriztion came just in time in June to pursue an opening with The Second City Las Vegas’ Scriptless show and backup for the mainstage which he landed. Currenlty, a voice-over demo is in the works with renowned Alice Whitfield and Darren’s talented wife Shannan Calcutt working with him as a two person voice-over team.
