• 5 STARS “Part Rik Mayall, Eric Idle and Eddie Izzard, bellowing British comedy-actor Jimmy Hogg whips around the stage like an excitable Labrador puppy. Hysterically tangential.” -Now Toronto

You won’t find someone who can tell a tale in a more fun or outrageous way than the Brooklyn-based performer.“
