He is that, but he’s also a stunning visual comedian, his unique form of slapstick comedy is backed up with astounding variety of talents, equally at home in a sweaty club or a shiny cabaret stage. He claims to have appeared at near enough damn it every comedy club in the country, as well as supporting the likes of Frank Skinner, Craig Charles and Omid Djalili on massive nationwide tours. He has also taken his unique style of comedy all over the world, performing in such places as Bali, Jakarta, Kuala Lumpur, Cape Town, Bosnia, The Falkland Islands and Johannesburg. He co-produced the show Abnormally Funny People in 2005, conceived to incorporate disabled comedians and actors into the mainstream arena. Steve is the token non-disabled act and is one of two directors of Abnormally Funny People Ltd, set up in 2006.
