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 Birthday party

Good service and Jon was excellent, he interacted with the audience and his show was based on life experience instead of politics or being shouty or sweary. Highly recommended.
