David Studebaker

Very professional in all areas I would expect. Very Funny, Prepared with knowledge about our organization, Kept our audience engaged all night. We will never plan another Comedy Night Fundraising Event without using a fun and engaging Emcee. If David is available, he will be our guy! Smaller crowd this time, but BEST Dixon Family Services Comedy Night ever.

David did an amazing job for our charity event. He was professional, funny, clean, engaging, & everyone loved him. Highly recommend & I see big things for him. Currently reading his book too… see his humor come through well.

David came to my groups corporate event, with very little heads up on our group he was able to poke fun at the certain people we were hoping for as well as mixing in his own bits. I got nothing but amazing feedback all week about his performance! 10/10 would hire again

David was the Master of Ceremonies for a dinner of about 100 attendees recognizing Small Business success stories in San Francisco, with awards given by the SCORE (sponsor of event), SF SBA, SBDC, VBOC, APEX, and attended by a smattering of entrepreneurs with interesting companies, all of which had been helped by the alphabet-soup of nonprofits named above. As owner of his own small business, David knew just the right jokes and stories and riffs...he and the videographer actually made the event a success. I've already asked him for next year! (But I expect his price will be higher, once he reads why glowing report. I don't care. He is worth whatever he wants to charge.) Nonprofit ventures rarely pay for his level of professionalism...and I am so totally glad I did. Thank you again, David. You rock.
One question for gig salad. Why don't they call the job Master of Ceremonies (MC) instead of the slang Emcee? Or maybe it is not slang, but it seems less professional to me.

I hired David for my husband’s 50th bday party, and he was definitely a good choice. He got the guests involved and had some really funny bits, and everyone was laughing and engaged. I’d definitely not hesitate to hire him again! He also helped with the flow of the party.

David,

Thanks for such a great comedy show last night for our company party. Everyone really enjoyed it!

We booked David for my 40th birthday and he did not disappoint. He is a fun guy and we enjoyed his comedy performance. He is very helpful and gave us tons of great suggestions for our party timeline. Thank you David! Looking forward to the next party!

Filled the role perfectly!

David is a consummate professional! We booked fairly last minute and he was immediately responsive, asked smart questions to get a sense of our event, and worked seamlessly with my team. David was on point the entire evening, able to adapt to any necessary changes. He's great with an audience. And best of all, he's funny!

David was great to work with, easy to schedule and delivered a great time for our company Christmas Party. Everyone complimented him and we would be glad to have him anytime!

David was the PERFECT match for our group and had everyone laughing! To engage with a teenage group of boys is no small feat, I suspect , but he knew exactly how to read them. It was a great night!!!

David was great! He was considerate from start to finish. He was the perfect comedian for a crowd with all ages!! He adapted well to the setting, arriving early, mingling, and having plenty of material for his act! We loved his interaction with the audience! Our guests were so impressed and will keep him in mind for any future comedic needs—and everyone “needs” a comedian! David fit right in perfectly for our event. He felt like an invited guest!

David was wonderful to work with and completely went above and beyond my expectations. He was well received by our audience and everyone had a great time. Thank you again, David! Would not hesitate to recommend or use again.

David was so fun and flexible. Clean fun for all! He can be used for parties, corporate events, and large audience. Good bits and great fun!

I had David come out and do a 45 minute gig for my friend's bachelor party. We all were having such a good time he stayed way over the 45 minutes and kept us entertained (thanks again!!!).

He was very professional, arrived on time, and kept us laughing. He did a good job of reading the room as well and interacting with all of us at one point or another.

I can't say enough great things about David. Obviously he is funny and had our audience in tears but he is so professional and truly worked with us to ensure our fundraiser was a huge success. David did his research about our organization, our mission and our community - he incorporated that knowledge into his performance making the evening all that more special.

David offered us guidance on what has worked in previous similar events and together we created a contingency plan (thankfully we didn't have to use it) for if the pandemic shifted us to a virtual event or if he became symptomatic. He is a true professional.

I encourage you to select David as your talent. You will not be dissappointed.

David was perfect for our work offsite of 11 attendees. The team had no idea our guest speaker was a comedian. They loved it snd it was the best opener to our event! We plan to bring him back to another event soon.

David is not only responsive, communicative and professional, he’s hilarious and very accommodating. We had a live virtual event and David was on it with the improv comedy and hosting as well as thoughtful. He took notes, weathered on-the-fly changes and was totally engaging. Our client’s executive staff was very impressed. Thank you David for providing a high level of professional entertainment.

I hired David to perform at my husband's surprise 50th birthday party and he absolutely nailed it. From the point of hiring to the day of the performance, he was very responsive and made the process very seamless.
Everyone including my husband agreed that he did make the night. His comedy was light and refreshing and every guest who was at the party including kids couldn't stop laughing through out the performance. Our audience ranged from all age groups and he worked the crowd effortlessly and made it enjoyable for everyone.
His act is one of the best stand up comedies that we have seen and this has been approved by our guests as well.
Thank you David for making our celebration even more special.

I hired David Studebaker to perform at my husband's 50th birthday and everyone agreed he absolutely made the night. He was comfortable performing in our home and he had us all laughing as he worked the crowd.

I've seen many stand up comics before and David is one of the best I've ever seen. He could headline anywhere!

I hired talented David Studebaker for two holiday parties that we were having for work. Over 140 were enertained each setting. He was professional, adorable and hilarious. I am still hearing talk about him throughout our company. He was able to mingle, get the scoop on certain individuals and add material off the cuff when he felt it was good timing. Everyone loved him and his jokes. As I looked around the room, everyone was cracking up. He even made me look good for selecting him. He did not disappoint. I would recommend him to anyone. He is definitely one to watch as his career grows. I know I will! Thank you, David, for making us all laugh!

David gave an excellent comedic performance at my parents 60th birthday party. He engaged the diversely aged crowd of 160 people with excellence. He included jokes based on events that he keenly observed in the hour prior to his performance. His comedic timing was great and he was FUNNY. David had a ton of positive feedback from guests. He was extremely professional to work with, he was prompt and most importantly, he delivered laughs!!

We booked David as part of our Irish Comedy nite at the United Irish Cultural Center. David was great to work with, responsive and adaptable right up to show time! His comedy was clean and very suitable for our diverse audience on the nite. We will have David back again as soon as possible! I highly recommend David for your next show!

David Studebaker performed at our corporate holiday lunch and did an outstanding job. He had a tough crowd to work with (about 1/3 of our audience doesn't speak much english) and he just rolled with it and "worked the crowd". He was very professional and we will definately ask him to come back for future events.

I hired David for my first show "Comedy Lanes" and he was a complete professional. Not only did he put on a great performance the night of, he also helped me by finding the other comics and giving me advice, being it was my first time producing a show. I highly recommend David for anyone who is looking for a very talented and positive stand up comic.
