The Sydney Morning Herald - “You’re in for a pleasant surprise when you see this entertainer perform. A clever combination of skill, personality, snappy one-liners and the ability to hold an audience in the palm of his hand, makes Phil Cass’ cabaret show a delightful experience.”
Phil’s stand up act is full of side-splitting comedy coupled with intrigue and involves a high level of audience interaction. It’s an act that is guaranteed not to fail. it is for precisely these reasons that he finds himself in extreme demand in the corporate arena. (Just to drop a few names, Mercedes Benz, IBM, AMP, Telstra, Optus, Carlton & United, Mc Donalds, Sony, Ford, XXXX, Coca-Cola and Lend Lease have all experienced his unique presentations.)
The large production shows that he produces are packed with mystery, drama, suspense, hot dance numbers and even a touch a macabre as well as the outstanding comedy routines for which Phil has become famous ... err, infamous. His credentials include making cars appear, levitate and disappear as well as the sudden appearance of the odd elephant or horse! He is one of The Footy Show’s favourite performers and of course, Midday’s as well. This showmanship and versatility has rewarded him with numerous prestigious awards.
Phil has been awarded for the last six consecutive years the Australian Variety Artist’s ‘MO’ Award for: ‘The Best Speciality Act in Australia’.
Other achievements:
Named ‘Queensland Entertainer of the Year’, ‘Close-Up Magician of the Year’, ‘Cabaret Performer of the Year’ and ‘Comedian of the Year’. Also Winner of the 1996 ‘MO’ award for Versatile Variety Performer of the Year and the winner of the 1997/98 Trophy for Outstanding Contribution to Comedy Magic.
