Hunchback of Notre Dame, The (1923) (640x499)
 

Comedian Walter J. Lyng’s monthly late-night talk-show Knife Fight somehow morphed into Brunch Fight during Fringe — now Lyng and co-host Leighland Beckman return with guest Massimo for a daytime array of shenanigans, stupid knife tricks and musical performances. MainLine Theatre (3997 St-Laurent), 11:45 a.m., $8 ($6 for students)

Check out the book launch for Min Fami: Arab Feminist Reflections on Identity, Space and Resistance , edited by edited by Ghadeer Malek and Ghaida Moussa. The event will feature a panel discussion and readings. Concordia Community Solidarity Co-op Bookshop (2150 Bishop), 7–9 p.m., free

Le Cinéclub / The Film Society presents the classic, silent 1923 version of The Hunchback of Notre Dame (starring Lon Chaney, who also played the Phantom of the Opera), screening in a gothic church with live music accompaniment. Westmount Park United Church (4695 de Maisonneuve W.), 7:30 p.m., (cash only) $13/$9 (students and seniors 65+ with valid ID)

U.K. band Jungle (a duo that swells to a septet live) bring their new disco-soul vibes to Club Soda — see our interview here — with Empress Of. 1225 St-Laurent, 9 p.m., $18

If you’re looking to shake it, head to the floor at the cozy confines of le Bleury, where Poirier will be spinning all night. 2109 Bleury, 9 p.m., $4 before midnight/$7

Or, behold the experimental thrash-jazz of Skurge with Feefawfum and Varger. Barfly (4062 St-Laurent), 10 p.m., $5
