Giant Leap: Comedians’ Theatre Company 4****
August 28, 2015 | one4review

James Ross – Leopardoptera 5*****
August 28, 2015 | one4review 1
James Ross has huge energy and no indoor voice. He’s also friendly, cuddly (like a teddy with a nice smile) and intelligent.

The Brendon Burns Show Again: Brendon Burns 4****
August 27, 2015 | one4review
