A Final mention for the five feet tall dynamo that we know and love as - Laurie Anna. I do believe that someone once put Tommy Cooper - Lee Evans - Chubby Brown - Marti Cain and a tazmanian devil in a blender, mixed the contents for ten minutes and out popped Laurie anna. Just my take on what I saw and heard but Im sure others can see where Im coming from. Noah - Martin Mac

Hi Laurie Anna - it's Steve and Karen (the agents that came to see you on Saturday night)......well what can we say? Working in the business for as long as we have, its been years since we have seen anything like you and your amazing performance. We haven't laughed so much in ages, and got a real feeling that we had 'discovered' something special the second you stepped on to that stage. You had the audience in the palm of your hand - some of the things you got away with were hysterical, and the fact that the audience not only allowed you to do the things you did, but loved it too was a real credit to you and your very obvious talent.Thank you for a great night, your amazing. Looking forward very much to working with you.See you soonSteve & Karen (Crescendo Entertainments Limited)

Hi guys, the man on the street says yes!! I went as promised to the Carnival and saw Laurie Anna in full costume and wow what a difference from the Als' Pals music night rigaliarie. She was absolutely blinding no wonder she is the top female comic act in the area. The Whole of the Carnival was in uproar and stitches to the comic antics of the most talented comedienne (am I allowed to say that) seen locally for some considerable time. Well done chuck, you well deserve this little mention, it's not all about rock n roll ya know. Indeed look out boys this chick is hot. If you have not yet seen her perform then you have missed a real treat. Mark Cockrill
