Live
Last year saw Steve’s stand-up work go ballistic. He is a regular headline act at The Comedy Store and other alternative venues, and performed alongside Steve Coogan & Peter Kay at the Apollo Theatre Manchester.
During the last few years Steve has supported Peter Kay many times; He has toured with Dave Spikey on his ‘Overnight Success tour’, performed with the cast of ‘Phoenix Nights’ and Badly Drawn Boy to over five thousand people at the Europa Festival in Manchester, and up until last year, performed every summer as ‘Mad Edgar’, a jester character he invented ten years ago.
Steve is also co-founder of the ‘Slaughterhouse- Live’ character comedy nights. The group have taken the Edinburgh Festival Fringe by storm with sell out shows and rave reviews for two years running. Link: www.slaughterhouse-live.com
