Saw Chris at Bloomsbury Theatre earlier this month, he was great. Despite such a long show he had the material and physical strength to never let the audience down. lovely stuff Pat Garnett, April 2009 |
|
Watched Chris as part of Edinburgh and Beyond at the New Players Theatre and he was amazing. Tim, October 2006 |
|
The best comedian I've ever seen at the Edinburgh festival (and I've seen lots). Jass, March 2006 |
|
I noticed a few Bill Hicks gags too, but it didn't matter, they were but drops in an ocean of outstanding material. Since I last saw him, Addison's grown every more gangly and a little foppish, but he hits the comedy nail with some force. His act had everything from puerile (but funny) silliness right up to gags about rhetorical structures, all delivered at breackneck speed and with unswerving enthusiasm. Really, really good. Jason Holdcroft, November 2005 |
|
I saw Chris at the Wales Millennium Centre last night. I thoroughly enjoyed the show. He had very well thought and original material; it's just a shame he had to steal one of Bill Hicks' classics! With that incident aside, it was an excellent show. Ifan Rhys, November 2005 |
|
Fantastic! Really made me laugh and think at the same time - a novel experience [Anon], November 2005 |
|
I was blown away. It's great when a comedian makes you think as well as laugh. Dan, October 2005 |
|
Saw Chris in Hull tonight, brilliant. Second time Ive seen him - thought he was wonderful frist time but he exceeded my expectations tonight. Come round our house Chris, we could all rant at the telly together. Karen, September 2005 |
