Comedy for a Cause - Fairbanks

It’s 2026. The planet is getting hotter, and wildfires are getting smarter. Our firefighters need more support than ever. As comedians, there’s not much we can do besides make people laugh — but if that’s worth a few bucks to you, we’ll take your dollars and pass them on to your local fire crew! Come out and fight fire with fart jokes. Profits from this AK fireman tour will go directly into the coffers of local fire organizations to keep your goods and woods safe.

Headlining this tour is Damien Speranza, a firefighter and nationally touring comedian from New York. Damien has performed at comedy clubs all over the country, opening for Jessica Kirson, Paul Virzi, Dan Soder, and Capone. Damien has performed at the world famous Apollo Theater, headlined and performed at multiple comedy festivals, and appeared on Don’t Tell Comedy.

From his battle with cancer, to working as a firefighter, and being a father, Damien has plenty to talk about on stage. He is a high energy comedian, who has no problem discussing the good, bad, and ugly of his life. He regularly organizes Comedy for a Cause shows to fundraise for fire crews in the Lower 48 and is thrilled to bring the program to Alaska.
