Testimonial Andy Gilbert, Entertainments Director, Friends For Life

“Philip Barnett has compèred two shows for me to date, in 2006 and 2007.  I asked him back because he did such a wonderful job the first time, and I’ve booked him for my next show in 2008.  

“Philip proved himself by being able to work without a script, filling in without being phased when told that the next act was not ready, and coming up with inventive ideas which contributed to the shows’ successes.  Philip is very sharp; he can maximise an unexpected opportunity to make the audience laugh; he can turn a difficult situation into a funny one. 

Added to that, Philip is very thorough.  He researches the acts he is to introduce, meets and interviews them in advance, watches them rehearse, thereby having a complete knowledge of whom he is bringing on to the stage.

“In a nutshell, Philip is, without doubt the most professional compère I have worked with since I began staging shows in 1980.”
