Comedy In Your Eye

Russell recently presented an outstanding comedy set at our strategic global offsite held for the senior leadership team. His instinctive skill to read the room and personalities in it had everyone crying with laughter and not wanting the event to end.
Harriet Anderson Bradley, Manager, Business Development and Marketing, JTC Group, Financial Firm

Regularly provides stellar headline sets and compering. For six years we’ve trusted him to perform all over Europe and audience members have been left howling and demanding a rebooking. As well as comedy club events, Russell works with us on corporate shows, and whether they are virtual or in-person, he always impresses our clients with his winning improvisations and personalised stylings.

That was f***ing awesome. Who put me on after him?
David Gower, Former England Cricket Captain

Just brilliant. Russ is the funniest non-scripted comedian I’ve seen. No matter how many times you see him, Russell never fails to deliver. He is perfect for any event.
Dee Ryall, Lords Taverners Chairman, East Kent, and Director of Whitney Homes

Had everyone doubled up with laughter. Would recommend for any event. He knew exactly how to pitch to the audience.
Kirsty Walder, Canterbury Rugby Club

I’ve been producing the monthly 5×5 show for Soho House with Russell hosting for over a year now. Five young comedians do five minutes. You’ll notice that 5×5 only adds up to 25 minutes. What happens for the rest of the time? Russell Hicks is what happens for the rest of the time. Live shows don’t get much better than this.
