Booked for Corporate Function

We booked a comedy night for our work summer party, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Kev was incredibly helpful and informative throughout the entire booking process, right up to the end of the event. He took the time to listen to our requirements and made sure everything was tailored to suit our group. We really enjoyed all three comedy acts, each bringing their own unique style and variety of humour, which kept everyone entertained throughout the evening. There was something for everyone, and the feedback from our team has been overwhelmingly positive. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kev and the team to anyone looking to organise a memorable comedy event. Thank you for helping make our summer party such a great success!

Booked for Corporate Function

We were hosting a charity event which Tom compered and organised the comedians. To start with Tom was great in his communication and was very friendly to deal with. On the night he was great. Very funny and perfect as a compere. The comedians he organised had us rolling with laughter. I would definitely recommend.

Carl was fantastic, a very different environment to what he was used to but managed it very well. He amazed everyone with his magic, leaving us all wondering how. He's very professional and I would highly recommend him for any occasion. Thankyou.

"Paul, arrived early, he was well prepared for the evening. He was soon engaging with the people attending the event, even before it began. His show was excellent, very funny and the magic was spell-binding. Very happy with booking, I can certainly recommend Paul for future events."

Booked for Corporate Function

"Louis comes highly recommended, never laughed so much in my life. Took a gamble and booked a local comedian and what a decision that was. Louis was so good, we booked him again a few weeks later. He completed a fantastic set ranging from full audience participation, musical comedy and of course some good old funny jokes and stories. I was able to send some information prior to the act relating to some of the audience and Louis managed to incorporate the story’s and pockets of information fantastically into his act. He was briefed on the audience and tailored his act to the audience with precision. If you need a comedian, it’s not a gamble, he was quality and we look forward to seeing you again next year Louis !!!"
