"The term “circuit legend” is overused, but Norris is one of a handful that have been headlining for more than two decades and rarely departs a stage without leaving it torn to shreds in his wake. A master of the craft, this will be the most polished stand-up you are likely to see."- GQ Magazine

"He’s one of the best headliners around"- London is funny.com

"…one of the comedy circuits best improvisers"- Daily Mirror

"…a splendidly funny live stand-up"- Timeout
