About the event
On Sunday, November 2, Reason and Ruckus in Poughkeepsie will host an unforgettable night of comedy chaos when Canadian stand-up Byron Bertram unleashes his viral alter ego, Sergei Putinski. With special guests Gabrielle Johnson, David Stickle, and Carmelo Bongiovi.
Sergei is a fever dream of a character—equal parts Soviet strongman, self-proclaimed philosopher, and deranged internet prophet. He’s become a global viral sensation, with hundreds of millions of views on Instagram and TikTok, and now he storms into Poughkeepsie for a one-night-only performance that blends satire, absurdity, and Cold War–sized laughs.
Byron Bertram is a seasoned international headliner who’s played stages around the world, from Just For Laughs and Britain’s Got Talent to Joe Rogan’s Comedy Mothership in Austin and packed venues across North America, Europe, and Australia. His comedy fuses sharp stand-up with immersive character work, creating live shows that are as unpredictable as they are hilarious.
At Reason and Ruckus, expect explosive rants, deranged history…
