Eric Cormack | Operations Manager

Andre was our entertainer for our Annual Sponsors Dinner and what a fantastic choice he turned out to be. From the outset, he gauged our audience well and tailored his act superbly. Not only was he funny, but his comedy was very clean and totally without swearing which was really appreciated by our guests. His professionalism and experience showed and he was also, an absolute delight to deal with. We received nothing but positive feedback from our guests. Highly recommended!
