August 28, 2023Hilarious and Kind, The Best Addition to a Party!
Peter was a great communicator from start to finish. He was a pleasure to have at our private event held at my home on the Cape. He was so funny, personalized the experience and just knocked it out of the park. I’d highly recommend hiring Peter for your next event!

Peter and his team brought us a great show that everyone was able to enjoy. They were very professional and stuck around after the show to engage with our residents one-on-one. Looking to add them to our resident events in the future.

January 20, 2026Fun Night for Raising Funds
We hired Peter as entertainment for a night of fun and fundraising for a local nonprofit organization for kids. Peter was great to work with. He made it easy to plan, showed up on time, and did a great set. He even brought a hilarious opener to warm up the room. The crowd at our event was nervous and didn't engage much. Peter worked through it and got the room laughing.

June 11, 2025Very Funny Comedy Show
Peter Liu delivered a **hilarious, high-energy** set at **Northern Spy**, blending **sharp observations, chaotic family stories, and Boston-centric humor**. His ability to **connect with the crowd** and riff on spontaneous moments made the night feel **effortless and unpredictable**. If you’re looking for **fresh, fast-paced comedy**, Liu’s show is a must-see.
