Matheus Dos Santos is an internationally touring comedian based out of Ottawa, Canada.
Matt's comedy draws from his experiences as a mixed-race Venezuelan + Portuguese-Gypsy immigrant trying to figure out what the hell is wrong with the world . Using a combination of word play, storytelling, absurdist humour and pitch dark comedy (all wrapped in a high energy delivery); Matt touches on a wide range of topics including the stupidity of politics, mental health, sex, cats, and every awful decision he's made in his 33 years on this earth.
When he isn't telling jokes, Matt can be found lifting more weight than you, bullying 13 year olds on Xbox live and crying everytime he watches Air Bud. He is currently doing... okay.
Matt's credits include; The Craft Island Comedy Festival (Calgary), The Baltimore Comedy Festival, Big Pine Comedy Festival, The Motor City Comedy Festival, The Portland Maine Comedy Festival and the Great Outdoors Comedy Festival. He has headlined at comedy clubs across Canada and Europe and has opened for acts such as Michelle Wolf, Kyle Kinane and recently Matt Rife on his ProbleMATTic world tour.
