An expert at being himself, Stephen K Amos is supremely warm and wickedly funny with an ability to charm onlookers right into the palm of his hand. He creates weird and wonderful connections within his audience who are drawn into his own personal world and thoughts brought to life by his chatty delivery, his ability to become the characters he’s talking about and his fantastic energy and warmth.
"Stephen K Amos is the embodiment of charisma. From the first minute to the last, he never lets the audience out of the palm of his hand. Amos's show is packed with well-observed material, performed hilariously. His affection for the audience is the killer blow, culminating in an all-singing, all-dancing party to which everyone is invited. No one could possibly have left this feel good show without a beaming smile on their face. A real stormer"
CHORTLE
"Half the audience would probably be squirming with terror, were it not for his winning charm and irrepressible charisma. Amos gives the impression of one born to entertain. He keeps the gags flowing thick and fast with sharp observations and stories before producing more devastating one-liners from up his sleeve"
METRO
"A lovely warm manner .......a great performer"
THE TIMES
"This year he has gained in stature, the first black British comic to really rock the Fringe in years. It's a strong show, with excellent gags and the finest ending on the Fringe"
SUNDAY TIMES
“One of the best comperes in the business”
