Comic Scott Dumas (aka Doom to his friends) won Alberta’s Search for Funniest New Comic in his first year of comedy, but was disqualified for going over his allotted time, by 26 seconds. “They wouldn’t stop laughing”, he says in defense.
Along with performing at numerous corporate functions, fundraisers, Christmas parties and golf tournaments, Scott has headlined comedy clubs from coast-to-coast, except for his hometown of Ottawa. Something to do with a bad Tim-bits joke.
You can hear Scott on Sirius XM radio, the “Canada Laughs” station, talking about gourmet pizza, having a French last name and his Mom’s nipples.
In his career Doom has performed with such accomplished comedians as Harland Williams, Tommy Chong, Emo Phillips, Mike MacDonald, Judah Friedlander, Ari Shaffir, and Gilbert Godfried.
Scott's performed on numerous showcases for prestigious comedy festivals over his 20-year career. He is also the creator, producer and long-standing MC of the Friday Night Comedy, a monthly stand-up show at artsPlace.
Recently Scott performed at the YYCOMEDY Festival in Calgary, the Okanagan Comedy Festival, and Funnyfest, as well as the 17th Anniversary show for the prestigious and long-running Comedy Monday Night.
You can also catch Scott in numerous television commercials, FX network’s “Fargo” and “Damnation” on Netflix, as well as his role as a fertility doctor in the award-winning movie, “February’s Dog. “
