Steve Day
is a truly unique comedian - warm, witty and engaging whilst dealing with the dilemmas of
being a deaf man in a hearing world. His stories of multiple children, wearing a suit and
the problems caused by not knowing how words are pronounced will have audiences in
raptures, and his uplifting tales of overcoming the obstacles in his path will leave
crowds feeling inspired.
Steve is a favourite at
many venues across the UK and abroad, and is quickly establishing himself as one of the
most popular and respected acts on the circuit. He has become a familiar voice on BBC
Radio 4, contributing regular to 'You and Yours', featuring in a half-hour special of 'No
Triumph, No Tragedy' and starring alongside Caroline Quentin and Patricia Routledge in
'The Sound Barrier'. Steve was also a staff writer on Radio 2's long-running 'The News
Huddlines' and has appeared on numerous TV shows, most notable Channel 4's 'Natural Born
Talent' and Sky's 'Abnormally Funny People'. He is currently working on a sitcom, and
early treatments for an adaptation of his stage show 'A Night At The Pictures' have met
with enthusiasm and excitement.
