"Charlie Baker, commanded the stage with ease and looked
comfortable in front of the audience. He knocked drunken
hecklers down left right and centre, while coming across as
a very funny man too. His unique brand of observational
comedy, mixed in with Jazz outbursts, was entertaining and
extremely well received by the crowd “ in a matter of
minutes, Baker had the crowd riled up and ready for the first
act of the evening."
