Steve Hall - LIVE

Comedy
Presented by: HOLDEN STREET THEATRES & AVALON PROMOTIONS LTD

Hello Adelaide. I first came to Australia as part of award winning sketch We Are Klang ("breathtaking comic firepower" The Scotsman); we got nominated for the Barry Award and The Age called us "unstoppably funny". We also got called "visually pitiful genius fools" which is my favourite ever quote. During that run I met my future wife, and now 4 years later I'm doing a show in her hometown. I've toured the UK loads, supporting Lee Mack and my friend, television heartthrob Russell Howard in some stupidly large venues like Wembley Arena. The show might be a little bit rude, though on nights when the wife's family are in I'll probably tone it down a bit. I was runner-up in the BBC's New Comedy Awards and the nice quotes at the top are from my first Edinburgh show. So, you know, it should be good. "A masterpiece of emotive storytelling... Steve Hall is the most intelligent stand-up you've never heard of" (GQ). "His phrasing is joyous and his choice of words close to poetic...tales of hilarious woe" (Metro) "Wonderfully misanthropic" (Sunday Times). "Deadpan brilliance" (Time Out) "A master of the self-effacing joke" (Fest) "Stand-up as it should be" (The List)
