Sam (Age 12) - ★★★★★

"Absolutely hilarious. I had to hold on to the nearest support to keep myself from falling out of my seat."

Myles (Age 14) - ★★★★

"Although I didn’t get all the jokes, the ones I did get were all mostly very funny. I think that the show had something to offer for all ages (from 12 and upwards), and the show was just completely silly and out there (in a good way). It’s definitely not one to take too seriously. The host, Olaf had great energy and was hilarious. Overall, I had a great time with the show, and 4 stars out of five."

Olivia (Age 13) - ★★★★

"I think Orange you glad was an amazing comedy show, he did say at the start it was a little inappropriate but still funny. The 12+ shows are perfect for older teenagers or adults and Olaf also offers a kids show for younger kids wanting a laugh. Overall I'd rate it a 4 stars as I didn't get some of the jokes but he kept the pace going throughout and did an amazing job!"

Max (Age 13) - ★★★★

"The comedy didn’t include many people apart from a few people at the front. It was a great show though and it was quite funny’"

Archie (Age 12) - ★★★★★

"Lots of innuendos, he had a very well planned format for the show lots of good jokes, he had a brain sorbet to cleanse our minds."

Maddie (Age 12) - ★★★★1/5

"I thought it was really good and funny but in some places it felt like he was skipping through most of it and felt a bit rushed ."
