We asked for a middle of the day, PG, show for employees. A difficult task for a comedian these days. Alex nailed it.
Response from Alex Avery One-Liner Comedian:
Thank you! Jake and I both had fun, it was a challenge but you guys were an awesome crowd!
Alex is funny, witty and can quickly assess the audience and get them into the set. Loved it, even brought another comic to “warm up” the crowd. He provided a wonderful evening of entertainment. She (Laci Day) was great too! Hire them both!
Response from Alex Avery One-Liner Comedian:
Thank you so much Rob please keep me in mind for any future events you'd like to throw and you and your wife are always welcome to any shows Laci and I produce/perform
Alex delivered a great set at our show. Prompt and professional, and fun.
Response from Alex Avery One-Liner Comedian:
Thanks John! I really had so much fun being able to play with that audience.
I had Alex on my showcase: Loadsa Laughs at The Waypost last Monday (12/18/2017) as a co headliner. I wanted him to do a solid 15 minutes and he provided that no problem. His jokes vary from snappy one liners to ones that require a little bit of build up and solid punchlines, a great mix in a my opinion. From head shakes and chuckling to hearty laughs from the audience, Alex provided a fantastic set. It was also his 22nd birthday and I can’t believe how far along he is being only 22. The future is bright for this stand up comedian and I highly recommend booking him to your next available show. You won’t be disappointed.
Response from Alex Avery One-Liner Comedian:
WayPost is one of my favorite shows to watch and be on right now, Eric has found a great room that I'm sure is just going to become more and more popular, thanks for making me a part of history.

If you're looking for a tight string of laughter especially as an opener or host I really bring an audience in no matter the venue, I'm very flexible in how light or dark my material can be and have no issues with cutting jokes from my act, I definitely work best with a crowd who's clever and willing to get a little darker, but I can still maintain that my set is clean language wise.
