“hugely entertaining” TimeOut “to see Tony Law is to inhale deep breaths of comedy oxygen” The Herald “a top-notch comic who marries a powerful delivery with some deceptively ingenious material” Chortle “his surreal sense of humour rattles and pings around the room just as it must when it fizzes into existence somewhere in the darkest reaches of his mind” Edinburgh Evening News “Law is terrific, effortless … one of the best comedy performances of the year” The Independent “brilliant Canadian rambler” TimeOut “Lawʼs genius for the random makes Salvador Dali look about as abstract as Constable … heʼs maintained an intellectualʼs eloquence” **** Metro “surreal and special, Tony Law lives in his own little world. Drop in for a while, if youʼre prepared to let yourself be dragged through it, youʼll leave much happier than when you came in” **** Edinburgh Evening News “a blistering, wide-ranging set from start to finish, playing with the audienceʼs expectations” laughriot.co.uk “Tony Law, the sherpa of stand-up, leads an expedition to undiscovered alpin uplands of laughter” Stewart Lee “Imagine if Harry Potter was a Canadian non-wizard who writes very funny jokes with his big hands – thatʼs Tony Law” Sean Lock “Tony Law takes a highly-enjoyable crap on comedy conventions, and manages to be clever in a way that doesnʼt make you want to throttle him” Adam Buxton
