DAVID ST JOHN - Clean Stand Up Comedian - Birmingham, West Midlands Event Location: Conservative Club Cannock Staffs Event Type: Cannock 18th November 2022

David provided the entertainment for our annual fish and chip supper on the 18th November 2022. The evening proved to be a great success with David making a huge contribution to our enjoyment. His approach is very flexible and he deftly tailored his routine to suit his audience. His use of audience participation was very much appreciated with requests and sing-alongs. He interspersed his excellent singing with quick fire comedy. Comedy which did not require any bad language or crudity to make it extremely funny. If you want a great evening of entertainment David is your man.

DAVID ST JOHN - Clean Stand Up Comedian - Birmingham, West Midlands Event Location: Burntwood Leisure Centre Staffs Event Type: Outdoor Festival 4th June 2022

David St John was the compere for our Town's big event in 2022 - the Burntwood Jubilee Wakes Festival. We estimate that David entertained around 2,500 people for the all day event, introducing acts, singing, and telling jokes, and keeping the atmosphere going. It was clear that David enjoyed the event, and his enthusiasm was infectious! David had great stage presence, and even off stage he was very engaging. We were also impressed by David's commitment and energy in the run up to the event, as well as on the day itself. He's a great chap to work with.

Dear David, Thank you so much for putting on a fantastic performance. (Afternoon of music, comedy, themed pieces etc) We are so lucky to have you on our books as I can't think anyone else would do a better job. Such a well thought out routine with a brilliant balance of music and speeches which made the day a very special one for the residents, trustees and staff.
