Earl Okin – Original Review
01/11/2004 … Forties throwback Okin is a true original; a distinctive, eccentric figure on the stand-up circuit since before such a phrase even existed.

01/11/2004 … Roland Gent starts his punchy set with a giant reproduction of a newspaper story, a hefty prop to be carrying from gig to gig, especially as the only gag to it…
Peter von Natzmer – Original Review
