Dragoș
Dragoș
This event has a 2 item minimum.
Dragoș is one of the pioneers of the English-language comedy scene in Europe — a Romanian-born comedian whose sharp wit, fearless crowd work, and darkly hilarious takes on modern life have made him a favorite across the continent and beyond.
After three hit stand-up specials — Hungry Hungry Dragon, Best Case Scenario, and The Schengen Special — Dragoș returns with Source of Sadness: a dark, inquisitive, and hilarious deep dive into the weirdness of the modern world.
He began his stand-up journey in Singapore and has since performed over 1,000 shows across 80+ European cities, becoming one of the most active touring comedians in the region. His comedy is a tribute to Eastern Europe and the international expat experience, blending dry observation with cultural insight, vulnerability, and absurdism.
Dragoș has received 500+ glowing reviews and built a loyal online following of over 1.2 million fans across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook — including over 700,000 on TikTok and over 450,000 on Instagram alone.
During the lockdown, he wrote for Comedy Central and took his comedy global, connecting with fans across borders through raw, smart, and unfiltered stand-up.
Now, with a new visa and a fresh perspective, Dragoș is coming to Chicago.
The Den Theatre and comedy club is pleased to host Dragoș on May 16, 2025 at 1331 N. Milwaukee Ave. in Chicago’s Wicker Park neighborhood.
Tickets are currently available at thedentheatre.com or by calling (773) 697-3830.
