"He was fantastic!" - Laugh Out Loud Show (BritAsia TV) -2014
"He closed the night in wonderful style. Difficult to categorize as he manages to draw laughs in so many different ways, hitting you with punchlines from unexpected angles. A good balance of stories and punchlines, with some excellent audience interaction. Well worth booking." - Dashwood Comedy 2014
"Very sharp, very witty, his material is incredibly finely crafted and hits the audience so closely between the eyes that you'd swear he's been doing this for years and years. This guy is going places so grab him for a spot whilst you still can. He's also thoroughly professional, intelligent, polite and courteous, making him a pleasure to work with. Absolute top drawer." - Kington Comedy – 2014
Sheraz was a true professional, taking control of the night, organising the other comedians and dealing with a proper diva.
As for his performance he worked the crowd well with a good mix of light hearted mickey taking and local banter.
Saying the crowd was warm for the acts is an understatement, they were boiling hot which gave all the act a great platform to perform on. I have asked Sheraz to come back and MC another gig for me and would recommend booking him to anyone." - MC/Compere for Bath Comedy – Feb 2014
Great stage presence and great material, both us and the audience loved him. We will definitely be booking him again. If you get the opportunity to book him then do." - NCF Comedy – 2014
"He was an absolute revelation. Faultless delivery, held the rooms attention; opened with a killer and kept a superbly even performance of observational and setup/punchline material. Top bloke to work with as well who has a genuine warmth and love for what he does that is so telling in how well the audience responded to him. Comes highly recommended so don't miss out on booking him" Coldharbour Comedy - 2013

"I held a charity comedy night, where Sheraz MC'd, he was absolutely brilliant. The crowd loved him. He was brilliant to work with, very helpful and much organised. I have already booked him for two more gigs this year due to the huge success, which was all down to his hard work! Thanks Sheraz, I really appreciate your help even though you were in cast and crutches on the night, it was an amazing night and the audience can't wait for the next two gigs!" - Selfless Charity – 2013
