rambles loosely across subjects and his smooth, relaxed style is a
joy. "

"..a pleasure from start to finish.." "Gordon Southern delights with his new show
‘Borders’" "This is the fourth Fringe show from the

Voted one of the top ten comedy shows to see at the fringe 2009 by The Independent, here's some press quotes for the Unofficial Annual: "one of the best in the business... A quick wit and onstage vibrancy... Be prepared for more than a few good laughs." DB magazine, Adelaide "So charming you want to take him home to mother immediately!" The Age, Melbourne "Clever, observant and high on the laughs." Beat Magazine, Melbourne "The material is sparklingly original- often
breaking genre conventions for a splash in the shallows of literary
criticism and poetic philosophy- well structured, energetically performed
and peppered with lacerating little one liners and funny jingles."
