Ian Stone - A Pom Looking for the Wow
About
Life can’t just be the humdrum, the mundane and the routine before the inevitable slide to decay and death. Why can’t we sneak in a bit of awesome, a tad of amazing and maybe a smidge of wonderful? Anyway, I’m on the lookout. Come and join me on the hunt.**** ”A masterful exponent of self-mocking Jewish humour" The Times
“One of the top ten comedians in the UK” The Independent
"Seriously funny” The Guardian
***** “It is always a delight to see him perform and this was another example of his wit, comedic talent and seemingly laidback, amiable style and is a great way to spend an hour” One4Review
