Ivor compered my gig tonight and he was terrific, turning around a pretty indifferent crowd with great aplomb.

Alaric Dynevor, Comedy Cellar, Hudderrsfield, March 2008


Ivor's been going for ages and boasts all the stature and respect of Alexei Sayle. He also sports the Jewish neuroticism of Woody Allen. Incidentally neither of them have made me laugh for around 15 years. Ivor's strong and confident but the actual laughs are few and far between.

Michael Monkhouse, November 2007


Ivor is a classic: strong material and most importantly a funny guy.

Wayne Howard, June 2006


Love his opinions on what makes a stand-up: "You've gotta be unbelievably arrogant". And I always welcome some Jewish bitterness - nothing is funnier than someone else's unnecessarily exaggerated misfortunes.

Amy, August 2004


SadoJudaism was excellent. I had the privilege of seeing it in Hampstead in a very intimate gig with no mic - really amazing and very funny. It is incredibly hard to make 12 people laugh for nearly two hours, Ivor managed it.

Hamish, March 2004


Dembina seemed to me like a tired, bitter old bloke who smokes roll ups. He just complained to the staff at the back of the room about the mic feedback and slipped a few pretty lame gags in between. I have'nt seen Sadojudaism though. Sounds like I could be made to change my mind.

Dan Smith, August 2003


Ivor has to be seen to be believed. His look, somewhere between Charlie Chaplin and the celebrity bin chaser, Benjamin Pell, has not changed for years, nor, sad to say, have his jokes. His determination to create a catchphrase - "All the way to the...(microphone!)" and "Have we ever let you down?" (Yes, Ivor, you have) is stunningly committed, however admittedly atrocious. The night he comperes at Brixton is always fantastic, however, and he has become somewhat of a cult figure there now (at least that's what I think they said). Keep up the bad work, Ivor

Dan, June 2003


Well this is certainly a new twist in comedy. Ivor has a unique stage presence that I can only describe as personable and charming. his views of Judiasm, sado-masochism and how they mix had me in tears. Good show.

Rabbi Brandon, May 2003
