Comedian Russell Kane Credits the Hoffman Process, August 2010
Congratulations to comedian Russell Kane who has won the hugely prestigious 2010 Edinburgh Fringe Award.

Kane couldn’t resist having a dig at a Guardian critic who dislikes his high-energy, wordy performances, saying the process had helped him to remove the “vertiginous verbosity”.The Independent on Sunday, 29th August 2010 [View full article]
