For the second year in a row, we are bringing some of the funniest acts in comedy to the Mid Island! At a new venue, we present to you, a line up featuring two of the finest acts in one show!

Dylan Rhymer

"Politically charged, brutally honest.changing the face of comedy"
-the Georgia Straight

"Who knew Canadians could be so funny?"
-The Guardian

"Fearless"
-The Vancouver Courier

"A very entertaining comic with more to say than most. Rhymer has the ability to take a controversial topic, like abortion, make it funny, even silly at times and say something relevant. Unlike many Canadian comics his take on Canada vs America is not the usual pandering stuff and in fact quite critical of Canada."
-The Serious Comedy Site

For 20 years Dylan Rhymer has delighted and challenged audiences all over the world with his intelligent, provocative and fast-paced brand of stand-up comedy. Rhymer explores social issues, philosophy and current events through the lens of his own insecurities and stupid shortcomings in a way that everyone can relate to. He has a sharp and imaginative style that thrills audiences while encouraging them to think. Edgy, charming and hilarious, DylanRhymer is truly in a class of his own.
