Tim Batt kills in his latest NZ International Comedy Festival show, Classy Warfare... witty, relatable, and an uproariously good time.

I could have easily watched their back and forth for hours. Batt proved a confident and engaging host, aided by Rowell as the perfect sidekick.
- NZ Herald
a well-executed show. The audience enjoyed the show. I enjoyed the show. Thumbs up from me.
- The Speakeasy
a warm and light-hearted night out, and I appreciated the off-beat banter and quirkiness of the show’s format.  Disasteradio was great with his unscripted probing, amiable swordplay with Tim and of course, his computer genius.
- Mac + Me
If you’re getting a bit of show fatigue and keen for something a bit different and unpredictable, this is a great late night treat. 4 stars
- KeepingUpWithNZ
Batt’s charisma and amiable persona make him the ideal host while Disasteradio provides well-timed musical cues as the show’s one-man house band... this is a great late night treat. 4 stars
- Appetite For the Arts
It’s a good time. Space Couch is a talk show without the hyperactivity of common long-form content, and that’s a good thing.

His hour long solo show is well-crafted and doesn’t always play by the rules. It’s political and personal, cultural and thoughtful. But most of all its funny. Batt has the audience captivated from the start and never loses us. - Libel

Great material delivered with panache… He's clever and he's got something to say. 
​- Stuff.co.nz
Batt is extremely quick and approaches things both laterally and literally. The combination of quite high concept material with crude cutaways and a general disregard for structure make for an enjoyable and surprising show.
- Scoop.co.nz
For fans of smart, enjoyable political comedy this comes highly recommended
- Theatreview
The bottom line is Tim's funny… and by my gauge, one of the brightest young comedians the Southern Hemisphere's seen in yonks. - Whats Good Blog

Incredibly refreshing, honest and relatable – a must-see at this year's comedy gala.

Tim switches between an amiable, grinning charmer and a very angry, political man in a heartbeat.​ - GATHER AND HUNT
Even though he has performed on television, a regular on the 7 Days show, one cannot help but feel he would clean up at university o-weeks and dunedin related festivals or in some underground nyc venue where early american comedic greats started out.
- KeepingUpWithNZ
Full disclosure: I want to be this guy’s BFFL. - WHAT'S GOOD BLOG
Batt's reactive opinions are on par with George Carlin and Bill Hicks, but the aggression of these late comics is replaced with a youthful and almost optimistic exuberance

His delivery and rapport-building being akin to the best in business 
- Gather and Hunt
Tim Batt is all jest and good banter. 5 Stars 
​- 
KeepingUpWithNZ
This reflective pace is, however, excellently balanced with the odd incredulous outburst and cynicism of a young white male torn between his generation Y birthright and fundamentally philosophical views. 
- TheatreScenes
Tim Batt's performance is a professional display of a non-professional kiwi archetype
- Theatreview
Go watch a comedian while he’s still affordable because I have no hesitation in predicting that Tim Batt will get to the top of the New Zealand comedy scene in time.
- The Ruminator

2013

Picture
A fast paced, chatty, well timed hour of uncompromised, eloquent comedy.
- Theatreview
Tim Batt’s mischievous smirk and dark wit deliver a barrage of twisted punch lines that will have you chuckling with your hands over mouth, but dying for more.
- Mediaworks' producer/director Damien Daniel
Wildly funny

KeepingUpWithNZ
Absolutely one of the best comedy acts I have seen in years, and one of the highlights of this year's international comedy festival. Someone get that man a tv show stat.
