"Danylo proved he belongs with the country's best. He can do anything: clever observational stuff, impressions, physical bits and even improv. His comic comparisons are without equal."
– Glenn Sumi (NOW Magazine)
Roman Danylo is one of Canada's most versatile comedians; his variety comedy show consists of sketch, stand-up, and improv.
Roman’s hilarious, topical, improvised and thoroughly customizable one-man shows are perfect for any corporate/association or theatre/comedy clubs. He has been known to gather information from the organizers and customizes a show specifically to their audience. Often, he invites audience members on stage for improvised scenarios, and no matter how witty the volunteers, he molds their presence into a memorable, of-the-moment sketch. With some standup and a few ridiculous character monologues, you get a delightful, clean and entertaining evening with one of North America’s fastest rising comedy stars.
He is one of a handful of comedians to have been awarded the honor of performing in the prestigious HBO Comedy Festival in Aspen and Montreal’s Just For Laughs Festival in the same year. Roman and the cast of "Comedy Inc." have received two Gemini Nominations for their performances on CTV and the Comedy Network. The series won the prestigious Gold Medal Award for "Best TV Variety Program" at the 2007 New York Festivals for the third year in a row. In addition, he has won the 2004 Leo award for his performance in CBC’s “Western Alienation Comedy Hour”.
Roman has two tailor made shows available:
CSI “YOUR TOWN”
Comedy Scene Investigation.
A sketch comedy revue starring Roman Danylo. This touring comedy show is jammed packed with hilarious sketches, improv comedy, and a title parody sketch featuring Roman impersonating David Caruso cracking a case that could only happen in “Your Town”.
Imagine “CSI Kelowna” where the murder takes place at the local ‘Mission Hill Winery’, the killer hides out at ‘The Grand Hotel’, is chased down ‘Harvey Ave’ and escapes on a wave runner stolen from ‘Okanagan Boat Rentals’.
After careful DNA testing and enhancing a blurry photo, the killer is revealed to be none other than the Sasquatch riding on Ogopogo drinking a Kokanee…. That sorta thing.
Or:
Roman Danylo is “ROMAN AROUND THE COUNTRY” in this variety comedy show consisting of sketch, stand-up, and improv. The show is both light-hearted and edgy and takes on various subjects from love, to war, to snacks at the mall food court. A blend of four different genres of comedy, Roman begins his show with high energy observational stand-up, then incorporates audience members into interactive comedy sketches, all the while peppering in some of his popular characters from TV. He finishes by inviting a fellow professional improviser to the stage to join him in some award-winning improvisation. Roman breaks all the rules of traditional comedy shows by often crawling into the crowd or bringing audience members up on stage to make them part of the experience. With all types of comedy and a wide range of topics, Roman Danylo Live has a little something for everyone. Once you’ve seen this show you’ll never need to watch comedy again!

"Best sketch comedy show since Kids in The Hall"
– Lindsay Brown, Halifax Daily News.
"Roman's ability to keep a crowd laughing with the use of improvisational comedy was obvious. With some information about our company and our employees he was able to put together a clean, humorous program that entertained all and offended none."
– John Lalumiere, Human Resources Manager, Lafarge Canada |
