Daniel-Ryan Spaulding is an internationally touring Canadian-Croatian stand-up comedian who has performed in over 40 countries worldwide.
His show is a wild ride through European expat life and the human condition. How does your perspective on life change as a global citizen? A show that will unburden your frustrations, leave you feeling empowered and make you laugh ‘til it hurts!
We are very excited to invite him back to ETB | IPAC for a solo show following his legendary headlining appearances in our International Comedy Showcase in 2014 and 2015!
“Daniel shines when engaged in storytelling, timing his humor well in an admirably relaxed fashion, while his mannerisms and confrontational attitude entertain, as he lets his inner frustrations spill out into hilarious and, at time, brutal anecdotes. Daniel’s combination of camp enthusiasm and fearless outspokenness serve to create a very entertaining show.”
– **** Three Weeks (UK)
“Brilliant, hilarious subversion” – Huffington Post
