I snuck away from work early to catch Gareth's show and I am glad I did. I have seen Gareth perform from open spot to genuine headliner over the last 14 years and his shows are getting better and better. A likeable and very funny comedian, get along before the end of the show... the perfect starter for a cracking fringe night out.

Gareth’s show is a must see, highly recommend it. He has a sharp, witty sense of humour and his material is very relatable. Had the room in stitches the entire hour. Very enjoyable

Gareth has really smashed it with this years show. Taking a risk and it paying off with a great hour spent with laughs, heart and fantastic crowd work.

Been one of my must sees for the last few years and gets better every time!

We watched Gareth on Saturday evening in a packed venue. Brilliant as ever, funny, witty, audience participation was just right.
Gareth is well worth watching, you won’t be disappointed.

Gareth claims to have hated his show just over a month ago. Well let me assure him we, the audience, didn’t. We loved it.
