Really off-beat and sharp and funny. Definitely worth watching.

Booked Christina for a Ladyfest gig last night and i was so impressed. It's always so nice to see a comic who has no special quirks, no affected or generic comedy mannerisms and really intelligent, funny material. I would book her again in a shot (in fact om thinking of running a regular night just so i CAN book her again)

Exellent. May well be the best female comic I have seen.

Christina and me co-hosted the Worst Lobby Awards evening, and she was great! intelligent cool British comedy. the Brussels-based international crowd liked it a lot, and i bet some of them only even got half of the jokes, double layers and spot-on comments. Christina puts the "Art" back in "Martin"!

We asked Christina to perform at the Worst EU Lobbying Awards 2007 ceremony in Brussels. Christina, not knowing much about lobbying was very proactive and did a great deal of research on the topic. Her script and delivery were exemplary and she had the audience in stitches. She obviously has a big future ahead of her and deservedly so!

Christina kindly provided entertainment at the Secularist of the Year event organised by the National Secular Society. Given that the winner was an Iranian woman who had suffered greatly and then fought back courageously against the ghastly woman-hating clerical regime, it might have been a bit downboeat. Christina's very funny - and very appropriate - set raised the mood considerably and turned it into a real party. She had a receptive audience and they took to her immediately - once laugh after another as she laid into religion in her inimitable way. She's a comic with a big future - that's if she can stand the strain of being on the wrong side of the po-faced pietists.

Christina performed at a charity comedy night in aid of Harlington Hospice. Her set stood out among the comedy of the evening and she gained a lot of laughs and support from a quite difficult crowd! I found her relaxed and funny with a clear link between her jokes and one liners that held her performance together. As a hospice we appreciated that Christina asked if we minded her doing jokes in relation to terminal illness and this sincerity came out in other areas of her performance. She was likeable and very funny, a class act.

Christina was electric at the Funny Women finals. Her set was original and intelligent, with great comic timing and an energetic delivery. She clearly stood out from the other comediennes
