Dan did a great job at our company holiday party! We had him perform during dinner, which was the only time we had available and he did a great job captivating the audience even while they were being served. Would definitely recommend!

School AssemblyReviewed on May 26, 2017From Skaneateles, NY

Dan was hysterical. He researched our school and spoke with staff members (myself included) to write applicable jokes. He had audience participation. He tailored his material to fit our specific/somewhat conservative needs. Anything I ran by Dan, he enthusiastically embraced. He is a true professional, and a damn funny man. We could not have been happier with his performance. Peter Chapman High School English Teacher School Improvement Team Leader Wellness Day Committee Skaneateles Central Schools

Dan was amazing! We, along with our clients, enjoyed his performance very much. He was pleasant to work with through the whole booking process and very professional. He had a variety of material and left us all laughing. We have received several positive messages from our clients about how they enjoyed the whole evening. Each one especially said they enjoyed Dan's show. Thanks, Dan!

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on April 27, 2017From Niagara Falls, NY

We hired Dan on April 22, 2017 for my mother-n-laws 90th birthday party. We had many comments, from the guests, that Dan was very entertaining, impressive and funny. Dan was also very professional, and stayed in contact with us before the party which made things run very smoothly. We have greatly valued Dan's services, and would hire him again. Thank you, Dan Viola, for good, clean, comedy! Brian and Gina Shiah

Corporate FunctionReviewed on December 9, 2016From Syracuse, NY

Dan performed for our annual corporate Holiday party. The corporate team covers the state and while we work for the same company, we don't have the day-to-day interaction to truly get acquainted with each other across department lines. Dan was very funny and engaging. He brought the group together with his smart comedy and facilitated conversation (unrelated to work) about his jokes and social insights long after the party ended. We recommend Dan for any corporate function to allow for team building and much needed laughter.

Corporate FunctionReviewed on September 29, 2016From Flintstone, MD

Dan was fantastic to work with from the start. He was extremely professional and down to earth. Our group loved his high energy, interactive performance and speaking to him after the event about his own personal experiences. I would highly recommend Dan to anyone looking for an entertaining, engaging comedian.

Family ReunionReviewed on August 28, 2016From Parish, NY

He was very easy to work with and seemed to be very down to earth. We would recommend him and many of our guest came up to us and said 'how great he was and how did we find him" so we would put it out there anybody could contact us on Dan Viola and we would say you would not go wrong with having him for any event.

Christmas PartyReviewed on December 21, 2015From Williamsport, PA

Dan's performance was fantastic. He was high energy, engaging, relevant and funny. He act was clean, yet comical, and he easily related with his audience. He more than met expectations and he was just what our group needed to make our event fantastic. I'd highly recommend Dan to anybody looking to fill a comedian gap for their event.

Corporate FunctionReviewed on October 5, 2015From Clearfield, PA

Dan performed in front of about 50 people at our corporate Sales Meeting. He was awesome! Everyone was talking about the performance hours after he finished. He was very accommodating, as our event didn't start at the agreed upon time, which was not a problem for Dan. Communication with Dan was perfect, as he replied to every question I had. His routine was very professional, funny, with clean comedy. We have people come in from all over the country, and they are from all different backgrounds, and everyone loved the performance; a lot of them are hard to impress. I couldn't be any happier with Dan's performance. Thank you Dan for a night of many laughs!!!

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on September 24, 2015From Grand Island, NY

Highly satisfied with Dan's performance! He is very professional and easy to do business with. I hired him to perform at my husbands 50th birthday party and he did a fantastic job. Dan is very conscientious about the type of crowd he performs for and tailors his set accordingly. I would recommend Dan for any occasion and will be sure to keep him in mind for any events I may have in the future.

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on September 1, 2015From Penn Yan, NY

Making a decision to go with a comedian for a wedding reception is scary enough, choosing the RIGHT talent can be overwhelming! Dan Viola was excellent from the start, making recommendations and listening to our concerns throughout! He followed up with us continually and tailored his act to our audience. The result? OVERWHELMING SUCCESS! Dan was early, fun, blended in with our families, and we are still getting great comments that the wedding and reception was the best many of our guests ever attended. Dan was intuitive, professional and above all FUN and we truly appreciate his sharing our day! We highly recommend him! THANK YOU DAN!

Holiday PartyReviewed on December 12, 2014From Watsontown, PA

Dan Viola put on a great act for our corporate Christmas party! He interacted with the audience, was very grounded and clean in his material, and obviously excited to be there! He was very engaging. I highly recommend Dan if you are looking for good, clean, fun entertainment for any event. He took the time to get to know us in advance and used references in his material that was personal to our company. I look forward to booking him again for a future event!

Holiday PartyReviewed on December 8, 2014From Wellsboro, PA

This was the first time our company was able to bring in this type of entertainment. Dan was the highlight of the evening had nothing but positive feed back from leadership to field employee.He kept in contact weekly untill the event and thru out day of event.Was able to to give him info on certain members of the crowed and near by towns that he worked into his act which made to evening more personal. Would hire Dan again and also go thru Gig master for future events that our company may have. Thank you for having the quality comedians that worked for our event.

FundraiserReviewed on June 20, 2013From Auburn, NY

Dan had our crowd roaring. He delivered his act with great body language and lots of energy. The material was hilarious because it was stuff so many of us in the audience could relate to. His act was clean. He was very conscientious of our requests and the group he was entertaining. He did a great job and was very easy to work with. I feel like I have known him for 10 years.

ConventionReviewed on January 18, 2015From Utica, NY

Dan was just wonderful. He was very personable and great to work with. He made everyone laugh and have a great time, and tried to make his comedy relate to his audience. It was easy to tell that he cared about the job he did and that he made us all laugh and have a great time. Thanks Dan!!

Community EventReviewed on April 12, 2015From Ridgway, PA

Dan delivered a great show for our 130 all women event. Tough to balance what's funny to a wide ranging age of women in the audience but Dan did a nice job. He arrive early and spent time with us learning about our group and adding local humor to his show. Dan's large family and teaching experience gives him a vast amount of stories to draw from for his skits. He was a high energy performer and I would highly recommend him!
