"A striking take and a gift for finding the funny side of everything" -Bruce Desseau, Beyond The Joke
“forever beaming with a jolly smile, even while excoriating herself over her looks or lack of self-respect, or being brashly honest about life... there’s something refreshingly engaging about her quirky presence.” -Steve Bennett, Chortle
