Dale Dymkoski claims to be the world’s deafest, fittest stroke survivor. But he hates labels and can’t wait to tell you why. In his uplifting comedy show about defying labels, Dale aims to bring people together across backgrounds and beliefs with humor. Really, he just wants to be heard. Dale Dymkoski’s standup comedy is one dude’s antidote to “bro” culture in the current conversation around masculinity.

“Dale is a brilliant comedian. He is funny and completely himself. He uses his truth to make us laugh and also tell his fascinating story.” —NoHo Arts District review
