Christian Steel, a graduate of London's Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, first began performing stand-up comedy in October 2005.

As an actor, he was offered the male lead in The Graduate in the West End opposite Jerry Hall, but turned it down to play Peter 'Geordie' Gardner in BBC's Second World War film Night Flight alongside Edward Woodwood. He then went on to film Channel 4's Shackleton with Kenneth Branagh - living on an ice breaker in the North Pole for five months.

He has also performed with the Royal Shakespeare company in Coriolanus and The Merry Wives of Windsor.

Great energy. A born entertainer.

Christian opened for me last month in one of my midweek clubs and I am booking him to headline my weekend night next month. He is original, spontaneous and hilarious.

The Last Stand and The Howling Owl comedy clubs, April 2008

Christian was our headline act at a charity gig in aid of Harlington hospice. He donated his time to us. He was very funny and his little guitar was a great additon to the set! He was a very strong act and received well by our audience. Definitely worth seeing or booking!

An immensly strong act/compere who will evolve into something even more special. A brilliant comic!
