The fact that this show is free blows my mind. One of the best stand-up sets I've seen from the nicest comedian at the fringe. He immediately makes you feel safe and comfortable and has such a friendly personality. He is a master at his craft and incredibly engaging, it's a laugh-a-minute performance and I'd even go again. Amazing show.

What a fantastic show - how it's Free Fringe I have no clue. I've seen far worse shows in the paid venues, this is an absolute gêm

Steffan is a wonderful comedian - his delivery is warm and optimistic, with more than enough charm and cheek that when he delivers the harder hitting material it's still never alienating for the audience. He builds an immediate rapport with the audience too - you feel safe watching him, knowing you won't be torn apart! This show had one bit of audience interaction, and without giving spoilers, it had the biggest payoff I've ever seen outside of shows that are built on audience participation.

The only thing that lets this magnificent show down is the venue - I don't know why, but on a Friday or Saturday they allow pub patrons to sit and talk directly outside the door, which is very unprofessional of them. However, Steffan handled it magnificently, and even managed to make his crowd management part of the show. True class from an exceptional comedian. Probably my pick of the Fringe

Dropped into this show as I some free time and it was raining…
I feel like I’ve happened upon a real gem of a comedian. He’s warm, welcoming, very funny and completely able to deal with the pissed young men in the front row and the noisy drinkers outside the room. His comedy has a strong Welsh influence and the experience of a Welshman in the rest of the UK. He’s a great storyteller and I would recommend that you go to this show!

Excellent material - mostly around Wales - engagingly performed. The best pure stand-up I've seen this year.
