No really there is likely something for everyone in this book. He does use some lines that are offensive to some people and you will need to use your head and select the right situation for all your lines including the pearls from this book. Gazzo is a strong character and if you are not then some of these are not for you. Be careful and enjoy.

Just Brilliant!

This is really a product from Gazzo! I myself was suprised with the variety of lines/jokes in this book, he has a joke for almost anything you need in a street show and even any other sort of show. Only thing I would say is that it is really tempting to use all the lines and become a Gazzo clone haha.

There are some really great one-liners in this book! If you're looking for some great comedic quotes and one-liners this is the book for you. I would also suggest it to help boost your imagination. You can tweak these to fit your repertoire or your presentation as well! Highly recommended!

What a Great Resource

This book is full of jokes, one liners, and presentation tips for the real working performer. There is always something new to learn whenever you open this book. Lines range from kids-adult humor and are very well thought out. My favorite are the one liner jokes!

funny stuff from G to PG to R
by CARD_MAGIC from Chicago, IL USA on 04/02/2010 15:18:11
Gazzo and I have never met but we love working on the street, where funny stuff happens and audiences like funny stuff. My character is gentle, but Gazzo is cheeky. The jokes in this book range from g-rated and clever to raunchy-LOL that's not-my-style. There is enough usable stuff in this small-page-sized and fully packed booklet to please anyone looking for some great lines. One I've used for when someone walks between me and the audience: "Don't worry, sir. It's just a stage you're walking through." I gave not five stars because for me too much of the material was on the cheeky side and one has to have a certain thick skin, which my character doesn't have, which most characters don't have, to use these convincingly. Gazzo is one of a kind, and he does have some funny things to say!
