This Week’s Comedian of the Week is Ryan Visser Ryan Visser

Ryan Visser is a GTA-based Canadian stand-up comedian, improviser, and award-winning filmmaker. After starting standup only 4 years ago, Ryan Visser has already won the Sorry Comedy Festival and Yuk Yuks Toronto Big 6 contests, earning him the opportunity to open for Canadian comedy greats like K. Trevor Wilson & Simon King and earning him a position on the roster of Yuk Yuk’s Comedy Club & Funny Business Inc. He is also one half of Breakpoint Comedy, which produces a monthly, regularly sold-out show in Toronto.

Ryan approaches the darkest sides of life with an absurdist comedic lens. His smart and sharp joke writing delivers punchline after punchline, making audiences howl while they question their own moral compass. Despite identifying as a dark and dirty comic, Ryan strives to never punch down. He’s just a silly goose and a sick bastard.
