The World
John's work has taken him all over the world and he has been fortunate enough to work onboard the most famous cruise liners to sail the high seas. John was engaged to perform on the Maiden Voyages of the Queen Mary 2, Queen Victoria and The Navigator of the Seas.
Below are a few testimonial letters that John has received.
Royal Caribbean - "Legend Of The Seas"
Thank you so much for your terrific shows here on the Legend of the Seas. Two packed houses and standing ovations, what can I say?
Your humour and audience interaction was amazing; it was so nice to see the audience having the time of their life.
I have been stopped all day today by very happy and complimentary guests, regarding your show.
Thanks again.

To Whom It May Concern
Once again John has completed another successful engagement here aboard the Queen Elizabeth 2.
Our Audiences are very international and include large number of American, Australian, English and other European passengers.
John is one of the few comics I have seen perform who can actually bridge the gap between cultures. He is able to reach American audiences just as well as an audience from the U.K., which is a remarkable talent.
We always look forward to John joining us here as we know that our audiences will leave the theatre having enjoyed a very entertaining evening.
With regards

Re: Comedian - John Martin
John has performed on board the Caronia on many occasions over the past three years. He has been the most successful comedian we have ever had.
His non offensive and unique type of comedy has the guests responding from the start of the show until the end.
He is particularly valuable to Caronia because our guests come from all corners of the world and John is as well received by the American guests as he is with the Europeans.
I am most comfortable in recommending him for any type of function or venue.
If you should require any further information please feel free to contact me.
Yours faithfully,

Dear John
It is with the utmost gratitude that I thank you for your performance aboard the Queen Mary 2 during her maiden voyage. The guests clearly enjoyed your performance, and it was a pleasure to work with you again.
I look forward to seeing you again in the very near future, whether it be aboard the Queen Mary 2 or our older sister, the Queen Elizabeth 2.

To whom it may concern,
I first had the pleasure of working with John Martin during the Inaugural Millenium Season of Aurora.
John has a unique ability to know exactly what his audience wants and is a superb performer, which results in full houses and standing ovations.
John spends a lot of time on his act and always adapts and updates the cabaret every time he is onboard. Because of John's grounding and experience he is one of the very few comedians that can adapt his act to suit our guests, which is a must as the varying cruises, throughout the year, attract very different passengers.
It is always a joy to have John onboard and I look forward to his return.
Yours sincerely
Neil Oliver
