Down at the Mash House, Jonathan Rudge runs into the room, greeting a small but excitable audience. After having a look around the room, including inviting a rather 'peachy' audience member on stage, we begin.
— Broadway Baby (3 out of 5 stars)
His show is very relatable and he’s a very likeable chap with a lovely on-stage presence. A very entertaining debut from this very funny Londoner.
