Reviews for previous Sion James events
It was my first experience of a comedy night via zoom. Loved it, so much fun. Great atmosphere. All great comedians with different styles that complimented each other. Great to know that we were raising money for a great charity just by buying and ticket and watching the show

A hilarious night with great atmosphere even over Zoom, didn’t think it would be possible! Sadly some punchlines were lost from people not turning down their microphones but other than that really fun!

Michelle Du Swarte, awesome and beautiful Hatty, nicely turned out hair/makeup, bit too chaotic for me Lady singer, fabulous voice/harmony, we liked her Tony, absolute legend. Need more of tony in the world. Worth the extra £ Marcel. Seen him at underbelly, v good indeed French lady. V funny. Young chap in his kitchen (Toussant Douglas). V good, would like more from him. Topical with good timimg Enjoyable evening experience overall, will do it again. Thanx
