“Johnny’s performance was top notch. Not only did he perform his hilarious material, but he took the time to banter with the crowd as well. His act was polished with just the right balance of clean humor and the edgier material that college students love. The day after his performance, one student approached me and said, “He is the funniest comic we’ve had all year!” He is the perfect choice for entertainment on any college campus!”

We look forward to working with him again soon.”
