Elementary School Show

Rob was amazing! He came and entertained two different groups of 40 second and third graders in our school. All of the children (and adults) were completely engaged! He also was incredibly encouraging, reminding students that they should follow their dreams. I highly recommend him to any group!

They were amazing! I’m so blessed to have been in that situation. They surprised me by being so willing to come up and tell jokes! They are amazing, amazing children. They made my heart melt. Thank you for letting me apart of something so special! The fortnite jokes were amazing!

Funny IRL! Kind and creative, industrious mind.

We had tea at Dobra in Northampton MA so that I could interview Rob for a Steve Martin Masterclass.com comedy-writing assignment. Anyway, he and I had the most beautiful time.

While Santos could well only have talked about his life, he also 1) did great jokes and 2) helped me learn how to write and even encouraged a standup attempt! Where perhaps Masterclass wouldn't.

He showed me about how he managed his calendar and journal notebooks(putting me right in my element as I love stationery), was very open about his life and just a Master font of advice!

I could barely eat it was so exciting. And such a kind man. Very counterintuitively funny and iconoclastic. A busy person. Was leaving to do a podcast later that night!

Rob Santos is extremely nimble at Improv and Versatile, so this is a big recommend. He is making all kinds of different people laugh all over the place: Tri-State plus Rhode Island and Mass. Thanks!

About

Rob Santos is an award winning comedian, actor, writer, and teaching artist with over 17 years of experience. He got his start in New York City and now performs throughout the Hartford area and beyond. Rob appeared in the film Midas, created the workshop Each One, Teach One, and created the TV series Beige, which is available on Amazon Prime Video and Tubi and has also aired on Fox Soul. He recently shot his one man show ADH-me at the historic Warner Theatre in Torrington, Connecticut, a venue associated with performances by George Carlin. Rob is often considered a mix between John Leguizamo and Dave Chappelle, blending theatrical storytelling, sharp humor, and honest reflection. Known for blending humor, heart, and honest storytelling, Rob creates real connection with audiences. He describes himself as dialectically dangerous, using his DBT training and ADHD diagnosis as tools for expression, connection, and pushing both himself and his audiences toward something deeper.
