Al Pitcher Dream Guest
Al Pitcher är en komiker född i England och uppvuxen i Nya Zeeland. Han bor i Sverige sedan år 2010 med sin svenska fru och sina barn.
När Al först kom till Sverige slogs han av hur folk skulle ”fika” hela tiden. Han förstod snabbt hur viktig fikakulturen verkligen är för svenskar.
Al är känd för att vara vänlig, varm och väldigt rolig på scenen, men utanför scenen han har en rädsla för att lära känna nya människor.
Så, för att bli av med denna sociala rädsla har Al nu bestämt sig för att bjuda in några ”DRÖMGÄSTER” som han vill lära känna bättre
och vad är bättre än att ta en fika tillsammans?

Vill bara säga att vi är SÅÅÅ nöjda med Als insats på vår sommarfest idag! Det var VÄLDIGT uppskattat av våra medarbetare, och det var så himla roligt att han gjort lite research på vår hemsida innan och skämtade om det (plus det jag skrev i infon till dig), det kändes verkligen som att han körde detta speciellt för oss 😊 Väldigt imponerande att han kunde köra 20 minuter helt utan att se reaktionerna från publiken osv., väldigt proffsigt!
