Reviews for previous Hastings Comedy Festival 2026 events

John A reviewed Elliot Steel which happened on 8:45pm on Fri 17th Jun 2022.

Well delivered but kept reminding the audience that his humour was edgy and a little dark. We can be the judge of that. Not particularly subtle but some surprising punch lines that worked. The accent...just a bit strange. Bit Ali G. Good effort.
