STEPHEN HILL
Edgy, punchy, raunchy and above all very, very funny' - Edfringe.com
Stephen first got into stand up when he auditioned for Jimmy Carr's Comedy Idol in 2006. Despite only doing it for a dare and being hung-over from a wedding reception the night before, he convinced the judges that he was worthy of a place in the competition's final ten and performed his first ever stand up show at the legendary Comedy Store, London.
Since then he has been performing around the capital sharing the stage with the likes of Richard Herring, Russell Howard, Lee Mack, Andrew Maxwell, Reginald D. Hunter and Jeff Green.
Stephen worked with Jimmy Carr again in his comedy sketch show, for the extras of Carr's 'Comedian' DVD.
He was asked to contribute to Channel 4 Radio's '4 Weekly News Show' alongside Frankie Boyle, Mark Dolan, Greg Davies, Katy Brand and Tony Law.
Edinburgh 2008
Stephen took his first Edinburgh comedy show 'Adolf Hitler and Mother Teresa walk into a bar...' to the Fringe in 2008 where it received rave reviews including a five star review from Edfringe.com.
Comedy Club
For the past 18 months Stephen has been managing and promoting his own monthly comedy club, 'The Curse of The Old Crown'in central London. Andrew O'Neill, Luke Toulson and Andi Osho are but a few that have played there.
All this despite his act sounding like the tantrum of a spoilt four year old trapped inside the body of a death row felon.
