Booked for Birthday party

Wayne was hugely professional before the event and really flexible with times and his material. On the night Wayne was excellent and everyone said how entertaining he was. His act was really fun and he involved guests of all ages. His act was tailored to me and was really funny. Can’t thank Wayne enough, he was excellent 👍

Booked for Corporate Function

Philip arrived when he said he would and delivered the best bit of comedy he could considering his audience where too busy talking or still snaffling on the buffet! He had a tough gig but like any pro, the show must go on. I would have no hesitation in recommending Philip, I think our failing was putting him on too early.

Booked for Other Event

After initially turning Louis down for an event only because we were looking for female acts he contacted us in his capacity as an agent and boy are we glad he did. Louis made a site visit not only to view the venue but to find out exactly what we need and he delivered. Loius organised our evening to perfection, guiding us all the way to make sure our first event was a success. Even on the night Louise attended to make sure everything went smoothly which was a god send as the speakers and mike we has purchased were not fit for purpose so in steps Louise with a spare and sets everything up for us. He's well connected and has booked us some high profile acts and we've already commisioned him to set up our next event and can't reccomend him enough. We will of course be booking him to do a stand up eveing of his own with us. Great guy, great service, professional and friendly :-)
