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.

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 Private party

Dylan gave a great performance with a diverse crowd. He will be a fantastic booking for a mature audience and will leave the participants in hysterics.

Yvonne Evans5 Jan 2019

Booked for Corporate Function

Luke proved to be perfect for our event. He was very entertaining and picked up well on the responses from the audience which resulted in many eruptions of laughter throughout his performance. I have had lots of positive feed-back from our guests and even our event support crew on his act - so I am sure this will lead to future bookings for him. Would definitely recommend him.

Booked for Corporate Function

"It was a great evening both performances turned up on time and were welcomed by our staff. The first act Lorna Shaw only related to a few attendees with in the room due to the act she performed, however the piece she left until the end which was a song caught the attention of the audience and everyone has been talking about it since. The second act Tony Coward smashed it with his performance he had every one howling with laughter with his one liners. Thank you so much for sorting this out for me Kind Regards Balvinder Rana"

I've loved comedy since I was young. Nothing beats seeing people laugh and forget their worries. My style is warm, conversational and packed with one-liners, making audiences feel like they're chatting with a mate rather than watching a performance.
