Big Rhed, the Puerto Rican-born, Bronx-raised comedian who shatters stereotypes with humor that speaks volumes in silence. Born to a single teenage mom, he transcends the role of a comedian, embracing life as a deaf artist. Overcoming Single-Sided Deafness (SSD), Big Red turns his distinctive viewpoint into a comedic persona, providing audiences with a side-splitting window into the world through the eyes of a deaf individual. Brace yourself for laughter, enlightenment, and the witty charm that dismantles barriers.

Featured alongside comedy luminaries like Mark Viera, Aida Rodriguez, and Janice Messitte, I've carved my mark in the comedy scene. As the 2022 Coney Island Comedy Festival runner-up, I bring laughter that resonates. Currently hosting Funny NYC at Stand-Up New York, I've showcased my comedic flair at renowned venues including Comedy in Harlem, Broadway Comedy Club, and Yonkers Comedy Club. Crossing borders, I've left my comedic imprint in Standoperos in Puerto Rico. Join me on this laughter-filled journey where every punchline breaks barriers and connects hearts.
