His meteoric rise has seen him charm critics and audiences alike, with his previous UK tour shifting over 50,000 tickets. His second book Too Much earned praise from The Guardian as “heartfelt, vulnerable and touchingly sincere.”
“A riotous rollercoaster of a set from a skillful stand-up perched on the cusp of major fame,” raved The Evening Standard, while The Guardian praised his “sharp badinage, sympathetic personal material and – not least – his abundant skills as a raconteur and host.”
The Times highlighted his “neatly judged mix of realism and ripe exaggeration delivered at a frantically camp pace.”
