Sylvia Day is a Sarasota-based stand-up comedian known for her sharp observational humor and uncanny impressions with just the right amount of edge. Though she’s only been performing stand-up since early 2025, Sylvia’s rapid ascent through the Florida comedy scene has already made her one to watch. Described by local veterans as a “rising star” and “one of the fastest-growing comics” they’ve seen, she’s already earning paid spots, hosting gigs, and has twice been a finalist in McCurdy’s Comedy Theatre’s prestigious Open Mic Competition.
Born to a Swiss-Brazilian family, Sylvia brings a global perspective and a unique voice to the stage. She speaks five languages and spent much of her life living in Europe, adding layers of cultural insight (and the occasional perfect accent) to her act. Whether she’s riffing on the absurdities of modern life, wowing fans with her spot-on impressions or sharing the inner thoughts of her viral Instagram-famous pug Dave (13 million views and counting), Sylvia’s material is sharp, surprising, and refreshingly original.
Charming, fearless, and funny as hell, Sylvia is carving out her space in comedy one bold set at a time – and she’s just getting started.
