Reviews from K’nuts Club-Peterborough.

WOW!!! We have had Steve at K’nuts before…every time it is a completely different set. This man is a comic genius…If this man was on TV I would stay at home and switch on the normally disappointing box."

Saturday 23rd June 20007
This man was on fire.

Friday 16th March 2007
He's not just funny - he's dangerously persuasive.”

Thursday 8th December 06
"…he hit the stage running…his presence dominated the room…had half the audience wetting itself and the other half slack jawed…funniest set they'd seen all year."

Friday 18th November 06
"…a stage presence that is awesome. He grabbed the audience and didn't let go. Funny, topical and frighteningly loveable…a top act."
