Sureni's performance was amazing! She was extremely charming, and all of her jokes were hilarious, while still relevant to the audience and appropriate. We had 175 people attend the event, and almost everyone stayed the whole time. I can genuinely say that I feel like there was something (content wise) for everyone, which made the show even more special. Many people also stayed to get pictures with her after, and there was so much good energy going around. It was a pleasure to work with you all, and I hope that we can work together in the future.
