Chris Purchase
“Chris captivates the audience with his loveable person then whips them into a frenzy with clever material that is unique, easily relatable and full of big laughs. This big man is set for big things” Just for Laughs Comedy
Chris Purchase has been performing comedy for two years. During this time he has started his own comedy club, supported Andi Osho, Russell Kane, Adam Bloom, Stewart Francis and Omid Djalili, been one half of a successful radio show and one quarter of a sell out Edinburgh Fringe show.
All he’s ever wanted to do is make people laugh and make the world a better place. So far he’s doing the laughing bit and has yet to put into place his plan for free ice cream for all.
Quotes:
“Great stuff!” Stewart Francis
“Nice stuff there man” Adam Bloom
“Were you also performing tonight?” Omid Djalili
“As soon as Purchase takes to the stage you know you are in safe hands. His assured style and likeable persona make for a very engaging performer and his material is top drawer. Has was the stand out act of the night and well deserved winner. He’s all set for a big future in comedy” BTC Comedy
