that special magic that only comes on stage. It’s music and comedy and fun, but there’s also that tough
real life element in the story.

Phil Cool
Unquestionably the world's only "Stand Up Chameleon" Phil Cool is armed with a controllable rubber 
face. And he's not afraid to use it!  Phil's body, too, seems to be able to defy the normal anatomical 
laws. The original Mr. Rubber Face, Phil can metamorphose with ease from the Pope to Sylvester 
Stallone, Tina Turner to Forrest Gump, Jack Nicholson to Bugs Bunny, David Attenborough to a 
seahorse. Star Trek, Mr. Bean, even Pulp Fiction, .. Nothing escapes the Cool treatment. Phil is simply
incredible and, without doubt, he is one of the most original and unique comic talents to come out of 
Great Britain. - .Phil Cool's website   To order tickets online click here
