Funny, warm, funny, engaging, funny, relatable oh and did I mention FUNNY! 27 shows into my 2023 fringe and this guy finally brought the stand up to the Fringe.

Amazing show, amazing comedian, amazing story. Go, you won’t be disappointed. This was the best stand up comedy we’ve seen at Fringe this year, Andre had us in stitches. I felt that it was more than just a comedy - it was so heartwarming and inspiring, a real gem. 100% recommended.

Best show I've seen at fringe this year. Pencil this one in; humorous throughout. You'll be on his side from the opening minutes.

Absolutely corking. Slick, well structured, very very funny, and a very rewarding Easter egg at the end. Trigger warning for the codependents and people pleasers out there, it may hit a little harder.

Loved this show! Such an endearing performer and story, class jokes and writing. Loved how tight the set was, Andre had everyone on his side. Slick, hilarious, sad (as the best comedians are), he and cork were used in the same sentence! Brilliant.

A very fun show - very funny, and scarily reminded me of my own journey in my early 20s - Andre loves what he does and the audience does too.

A combination of goofball quirkiness and plain intelligence that could see him go far.
