October 2, 2018Top shelf entertainment!
Alex did a fantastic job at our event. We had about 75 people attend, including some kids. He masterfully kept the jokes PG-13 enough that the adults were engaged. I have had many many people tell me after the party how great he was and how they have not laughed like that in years. I totally recommend Alex. He was professional, smart and hilarious. Best wished to this guy, and don't be surprised if he becomes hugely famous some day!

August 6, 2018This guy tho.
So here I am hiring people for a winter valentine event for student leadership council at a college I attended in Oregon and I had realized that I needed comedy to help my fellow students relax and have a good time.... however I was totally weary about crossing school boundaries or offending minorities since the diversity their was large and I was not fully educated on what is considered funny or offensive in other cultures. I spoke with Alex about this and he already knew how to handle such situations... his act was great, awesome mix of funny, mildly raw and witty humor. He really engages with the crowds which I noticed the ppl loved. We got a kick outa him, let me tell ya. I highly reccomend him, he's worth the price!

August 5, 2018Best decision, ever.
We took a chance and added stand-up comedy to our long-running summer festival/event. Alex made that interesting idea a brilliant call. He provided our audience with truly world-class comedy – blew us away! Alex Elkin is now our favorite comedian, and I expect a talent that most of our audience will eagerly track (on his inevitable meteoric-rise to comedy stardom).
Hyperbole aside, working with Alex was a joy from first-contact through the the final punchline. Great guy, great material. Don't wait until you can't afford him! Book Alex now!

December 14, 2017CLASS ACT !
Alex has a natural finesse that allows him to easily slide into any crowd and create magic. He is outrageously funny with quick wit. He easily assesses a room and picks out anomalies that he casually throws into his stand up act which personalizes the experience. Our entire crew LOVED HIM !

I do not do well with strict planning and or schedules and Alex was able to be flexible with last minute happenings. We had positive guest feedback with several people asking if he has a dvd and where they could see other performances. Alex does great with interaction/reading audience/and awesome impromptu ability. We would definitely recommend Alex and plan to attend his performances in the future. (Even our offended guests stated that he is hilarious)
We hired 2 entertainers from gig salad and both performers were great.
