Testimonials:
“The very entertaining and hilarious MCs for the night had the audience busting a gut. They were Renee Amber, improviser at the Loose Moose Theatre and Andrew Phung, the winner of the inaugural Fast Pitch event with Youth Central.”

“Renée Amber hosted a packed house event at Theatre Junction Grand on a very short notice and she did not disappoint. She arrived promptly and managed her way to the stage manager to go through the scripts and program in a timely fashion. She was extremely professional, super-efficient and incredibly crowd pleasing. I would highly recommend hiring Renée to host your event.”
-Derek Hovinga, Board Member of Digital Alberta; Project Manager ZGM Collaborative Marketing
“Renée was a dynamic and friendly emcee. She was easy to work with and ensured the event was organized, on-time and flowed well. Renée's positive energy created a welcoming environment for our attendees and she was able to capture and convey the key messages of our organization. Would work with Renée again in a heartbeat!"
-Kylie Toh, Founder of Chic Geek
“We booked Andrew and his improv partner Renee to perform for us at our biannual update meeting for staff. Andrew and Renee found exactly the right balance of playful teasing of our municipal government ways and educating our staff on our key messages. The pair recalled all of the insider info we had fed them and weaved it into their skit seamlessly, and the audience really enjoyed the show. Thank you for making us look so good!”
- Sarah Kucharski, Corporate Communications, City of Airdrie.
