A star in the making. Amazing charisma, stage presence and brilliant story telling. A highlight of my week at the Fringe. I look forward to seeing him again in the near future. Recommended.

Absolutely loved this show. Emmanuel Sonubi is so warm, funny and very likable. Completely engaging and gripping from the moment he steps on stage. Hilarious guy who clearly enjoys being himself on stage, as much as the audience enjoy watching him. Complete natural. We laughed so much. Very, very funny. 100% recommend seeing this show.

As others have said, his stage presence is immense. This was an amazingly mature, confident set from someone relatively new to stand up. Great material delivered pitch perfectly. I'll definitely see him again.

Our second year seeing Emmanuel, he was even better this year and he was great last year. Comes across as a lovely guy and commands the stage.

The show was great. His stage presence and confidence were really impressive. His performance was really engrossing and kept me laughing all the time. The audience applauded for a very long time at the end. I'd definitely see him next year.
