“Extremely Funny” – The New York Times

“What a great act. You’re just a wonderful performer and we’ll be seeing a lot of you I’m sure.” – Penn Jillette

“Oh my… Well Done!” – James Corden, The Late Late Show

“Jonathan Burns performed at our Client Appreciation event in November and brought the house down! He was hilarious and now four month later I continue to have clients sharing with me just how much they enjoyed the evening and Jonathan’s Flexible Comedy act (so much so that I felt compelled to write). The age range in our audience went from 8 years old to 80+ and Jonathan had them all laughing. I cannot thank Jonathan enough, the evening was a smash and I would highly recommend him for any function where top notch entertainment is desired!”

“The response from your opening gig last month was incredible! There hasn’t been a week go by that I haven’t shared your name and website with people who loved the show. (And, having spent the first 25 years or so of my career doing magic, and puppets, and balloon animals, and stand-up, I have a great appreciation for talented variety artists such as yourself!) It is a great, original act!”

- Tim R., Springfield Arts Council

"Jonathan Burns was so nice and easy to work with. And, very entertaining! He scored BIG with my team and our attendees (170 in the audience)...all ages."
