Since its inception, Top Dog has produced shows for Take 3 Comedy, featuring Kru Harale and Annie Boyle, and Act Your Age, a pro-comedy show touring the regions. Top Dog's first solo comedy show, "Kelly Mac: Wrong Side of 50", was nominated for Best Comedy at Sydney Fringe 2022 and won Best Comedy at Newcastle Fringe 2023.
