THE POLO CLUB AT NPC
THE EVENING
Dinner menu, full bar, specialty cocktails, and a nationally touring comedian in a room built for a long evening. Every ticket supports Comics Crushing Cancer, a nonprofit that helps women with the personal costs of breast cancer.
Arrive early. Order dinner. Settle in.
CARL RIMI
Thirty years of stand-up. Nearly a decade headlining cruise ships around the world, which is why, as he puts it, everyone has seen him, but nobody knows his name. Since then: national comedy clubs, festivals, more than fifty commercials, and a second career as a filmmaker. He wrote, produced, co-directed and starred in the psychological horror film iPossessed, shot here in Florida, and is in production on Mid-Life College, a comedy series about three friends in their forties who go back to school to play Division III football. His 2026 special, Remember When, looks back on all of it.
On stage he is observational, self-deprecating and quick, with a sharper edge when the room is ready for it. Expect adult language and a show that does not slow down.

The Cause
In December 2016, comedian Jen Hellman was living alone, working the South Florida comedy circuit, and was diagnosed with breast cancer. Treatment was covered. Everything around it was not: the co-pays, the wig, the post-surgical bras, the groceries and the house cleaning she could no longer manage on her own. So she did what comedians do. She put on a show.
Comics Crushing Cancer grew out of that first night into a nonprofit that pairs comedians with communities across the country to cover the personal costs of breast cancer that insurance leaves behind. No 5K, no team to form. You buy a ticket, you laugh for two hours, and a woman in treatment gets her co-pay covered, her wig paid for, or someone to walk her dog through chemo week.
That is where your ticket goes on December 19.
Ticket purchases are not tax-deductible unless noted on your receipt.
