"Our organization, MSACROA, engaged David for our big event of our conference and he was fabulous! As chair of the committee, I heard throughout the night and the rest of the conference how funny David was and how much everyone enjoyed his comedy. Working in higher education, we needed to be sure his material was clean and appropriate. It was especially fun to see that he did some research on our group and related his comedy to our work. We highly recommend him!!"

"After the seriousness that we had been through with our facilities and going through the pandemic we needed some comic relief and Larry certainly provided it! He had great stories that he could relate to our organization and work we do with students with special needs. He had lots of laughs and gave us lots of inspiration throughout his Keynote presentation. I appreciated the ease of working with him from first contact to his presentation. He made sure to find out what our organization is about and who the audience was so that he could tailor his performance to fit what we needed. The feedback from the attendees was quite positive and I heard people talking about his presentation throughout our conference. Definitely would recommend Larry to have at any event that you may have!"
