Head full of material - great delivery! Brian was contacted with less than 24hrs notice to perform. He was prompt in his responses and delivered on what he promised. You can tell that he knows how to "feel" a crowd, deliver the punch line and wrap up on time!

Brian T Shirley - Clean Stand Up Comedian - Charleston, South Carolina Event Location: Ocean Isles, NC Event Type: Corporate Function 22nd May 2018
We hired Brian shortly before our event, not giving him the proper time to prepare that we should have, but despite this fact... he rocked it! We couldn’t have been more pleased with his professionalism prior to the event, both in how he handled himself and the fact that he even provided music prior to the event. As for the show itself... he was a seasoned pro and it showed. His comedic style and punchline deliveries were on point! I hated the show had to end because he had everyone rolling! I was thoroughly impressed and wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again or recommend his services. He was a great guy with great work!

Meet the Act

I feel I'm a professional at all times who treats people the way I want to be treated, from the staff to the club owner. I tend to be quiet and easy going offstage or off camera. I feel we are all in collaboration whether it's a live show or a film project. I take direction well and can fit my stage act to a very wide variety of situations. I like to know as much possible about any gig so I can do me research if needed and show up prepared. I like to get to a gig early and soak in my surroundings, sometimes before I even meet anyone. To me it's all about the way you treat people.

Additional Information

Between Stand-up, Acting and Improvisation ( I've done all threes professionally), I believe I've become a well rounded entertainer. I can fit my show to a variety of situations, I recently hosted a live gameshow at The Asher Theatre in Myrtle Beach Called "After the I Dos" which was a combination of all these attributes and more. I have also hosted Trivia, Bingo, a web series and 3 radio shows.


Virtual Services Offer

Online Comedy/Storytelling

I have done several ZOOM shows and also a storytelling event. I can do shows from 15, 30, 45 to 60 minutes. I can also cater material for your group/clients.
