John Mann

Sharp observation and wry wit mingled effortlessly with a gentle and confident rapport ensure this comic is unfailingly funny. Whether he is discussing the senile antics of senior citizens or giving handy hints to aid successful shoplifting, John's gentle and honest delivery makes him one of the most enjoyable comedians on the circuit today.

John is as at home with an audience of students as he is with a corporate dinner and frequently appears in most of the uk's leading comedy clubs. 

John is a regular and longstanding Jongleurs act (compere and headliner) and has worked all over the world.

He also has a very popular fortnightly column in the Herts and Essex Observer and has monthly residencies at The Rhodes Arts Complex in Bishop's Stortford,The Square in Harlow and High Barn in Great Bardfield.
