AN EVENING WITH - MERVYN STUTTER
Mervyn Stutter is an actor, comedian, scriptwriter, satirical songwriter, founder member of The Flying Pickets and something of a national treasure; he performs at the Edinburgh Fringe every year and audiences love him. He’s worked on Radio, TV, in theatre and cabaret and knows how to tell stories and sing songs, poke fun at himself and the Baby Boomer generation. His sometimes wicked but always affectionate sense of humour brings warmth and joy to an audience that is happy to laugh both at his life and their own. You will simply love An Evening With......!
“Wow!! What an evening!!” SAWLEY
"The best show we’ve put on yet." LITTLE WITLEY

“If anyone is considering inviting Merv to their village then our advice is..DO IT!
Best night ever!
We haven't laughed so much in years! Our hall rang out with laughter and handkerchiefs were needed to mop up the tears when Mervyn Stutter came to visit. His combined wit and musical ability were tremendous.” CLIFFORD MESNE
“Just wanted to say how fantastic your show was.
I think it was one of the best events we have had at the hall.” LAVERTON
“Brilliant! Great comedy! Loved his songs.
We had a great night. When is he coming back?” BORWICK AND PRIEST HUTTON
“One for the best nights we’ve had. A lovely charismatic man.
Everyone felt he had touched them personally.” BROUGHTON IN FURNESS
“Mervyn has boundless energy and a wonderfully buoyant view of life.

This is true comedy that we all appreciate – a super evening.” BLACKMORE
“A Promoter's Dream Show!”
“A full house, non-stop laughter and applause for 2 hours, hilarious comedy and great music built around current events and how they affect people of a certain age. This is the perfect show for the Rural & Community scheme with
Mervyn interacting with the entire audience, including the tea ladies
(ask Brenda).
Mervyn was also a pleasure to deal with - he will be welcome back any time.
Our problem now is: "How do we follow that ?". MAREHAM LE FEN

“Really great night with Mervyn Stutter in Toppesfield. I would say it was the best Essex on Tour show we have had in terms of match of material and style to audience. Perfectly pitched for rural touring. A real success.
TOPPESFIELD (Essex)
“A wonderful evening's entertainment.”
"Best night out for a long time"
"flower power nostalgia and topicality all mixed together with a great sense of humour, a superb evening's entertainment".

REPTON (Derbyshire)
“Last week at Newton St Cyres Parish Hall we had a visit from Mervyn Stutter and what a night we had. Laughter is definitely the best medicine and everybody left the Hall feeling better for it. It was a real community gathering; even the Hall was rocking with laughter as one man had to cover his head with his jacket, he was laughing so much.”
NEWTON ST CYRES (Devon)
“Wow! What a party we had in Talaton on Saturday night with Mervyn Stutter. He was absolutely brilliant and so, so funny, especially his songs. Quite a lot of people in the audience said they felt it was the best Villages In Action show we have had to date and I have to agree with them. Mervyn created a very warm, intimate atmosphere (he didn't use the stage, he was down on the floor in front of the stage) and right from the very start of his performance you just knew you were going to be well entertained. Audience participation was excellent and we demanded an encore at the end of the show - we just didn't want him to stop.”
TALATON (Devon)

"I'm glad there was no bad language. I had a really good time"
