British Comedy Guide, 28th April 2014Comedy Snapshot book published
Did you know that Jack Whitehall was related to David Dickinson? No, me neither. That is just one of the little gems in Steve Best's new book Comedy Snapshot.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 26th March 2014Jack Whitehall, O2 Arena review
Decent storyteller who needs more convincing material.
Veronica Lee, The Arts Desk, 18th March 2014Jack Whitehall Gets Around, comedy review
Though playing mega venues suggests a finished article, the young comic is still a work-in-progress. This show at least suggests that he can progress in quality (clearly he has quantity licked), though it doesn't signpost how far.
Julian Hall, The Independent, 17th March 2014Jack Whitehall, Wembley Arena - comedy review
In terms of production values this may well be the most spectacular arena stand-up show ever. It is a shame then, that the gift did not always live up to the flashy wrapping paper.
Bruce Dessau, Evening Standard, 17th March 2014Review: Jack Whitehall, Capital FM Arena
Messing with the mixture that turns a stand-up from cringing posh boy into justifiable people's champion is a tricky but necessary project. It has been years in waiting for Jack Whitehall, but he moved a few steps closer as the confetti cannons marked the interval - half way towards the most hilarious show he has produced to date.
Francis Brian, Nottingham Post, 12th March 2014Review: Jack Whitehall at the ECHO arena
There are perhaps one too many anecdotes about his sex life, but there's plenty of fun to be had in his engaging tales of social embarrassment, delivered with trademark squeaky indignation, and an impressively-constructed gag involving a cheese strudel.
Catherine Jones, Liverpool Echo, 10th March 2014Jack Whitehall Gets Around review
Overall it feels like Jack Whitehall should take one of the aspects to his stage persona and invest in it further to provide his performance with an edge, but as he kept thousands of people entertained for two hours that may be unlikely to happen - simply because doesn't need to.
Marissa Burgess, Chortle, 10th March 2014Jack Whitehall: standing up for Cameron's Britain
In Whitehall's routines, poshness is a depoliticised quirk, like being tall. You can only laugh at his jokes if you think disadvantage isn't worth getting upset about.
