| About me: | | Acclaimed as the UK's No.1 look-alike / sound-alike celebrity impersonator act
with extensive experience in standing in for Sven as a celebrity double and I routinely get mistaken for him in private and professional life including assignments for The FA official Hospitality and countless corporate event appearances for major brand companies and multi-national corporations.
I have a popular stand up comedy act and a successful after dinner speaking career in addition to being listed as the most successful and popular impersonator act for TV and Radio appearances and wide ranging personal appearances, public speaking and entertainment assignments.
I offer a fully crafted and authentic act with original material across a wide repertoire of dramatic and comic interpretation.
Further information, images and video available.
(Press reports and paparazzi images available via Google search.)
Please note: False reports regarding a Mexico assignment have been corrected. |
