Mike Dambra is the smart-ass king of comedy! C'mon, sit down front, we dare you! If you're a comedy fan and you haven't seen Mike, you're in for a treat. In 1987 and 1997 he claimed the "Funniest Person In Rochester" title. That, in turn earned him two television news stories in 1988, and more in 1989, 1995, & 1996. Next thing he knew, he was traveling all over the U.S. and Canada making people laugh.

As an opener for the likes of Howie Mandel, Rosie O'Donnell, Adam Sandler and Michael Bolton, Mike was spectacular. In his own headlining show, the Calgary Sun says, "Brush up on your sit-ups before you see this show otherwise your stomach muscles will hurt the next day...." He has since earned rave reviews across the country.
