Truly hilarious THE SCOTSMAN
Deliciously sardon THE GUARDIAN
STEVE N ALLEN's stand-up has taken a path through being a BBC New Comedy semi-finalist, Laughing Horse New Act finalist and Amused Moose Hot Starlet, on to performing at The Comedy Store, The Glee Club, Leicester Square theatre and The Comedy Cafe.
Steve has performed different versions of his topical comedy one-man show, The SomeNews Live Show, at several comedy festivals including Edinburgh, Manchester, Leicester, Brighton and Nottingham.
"Allen hits the mark, with an effusive mix of biting satire and gleeful mud-slinging that recalls Russell Howard by way of Ian Hislop. More than worth a look." �...�...�...�...
Three Weeks
"What was evident here, is the performer is quality, his mockery, and the excellent use of accents combined with clever voice-over interaction; is a performer with masses of talent."
Fringe Review
"His improvisation was impressive, topical jokes quick and practised on his tongue to mix up with his banter with the audience. This is a tight, upbeat show that I would recommend going to see."
Broadway Baby
Steve N Allen performs "�...�...�...�... biting satire" (-Three Weeks) and "cutting wit" (-Time Out) with a "charming and witty persona" (-Chortle). A self-confessed news addict, Steve keeps his finger on the pulse of current affairs. Whether as an on-air news commentator or as "a performer with masses of talent" (-Fringe Review) on stage, Steve is "very funny and sometimes bizarre". (-Surrey Mirror)
DAVID ALFIE WARD is an observational comic who in a short time of being on the comedy circuit is really making huge waves. David has recently returned from a USA comedy tour where he was very well received and we are already planning a further USA trip for later this year. David’s comedy is based on his own experiences and to hear how he twisted one of his balls is simply very funny!!
David have been given high praise from many comedians such as Andrew Lawrence, Toju & David Ward to just name a few.
