Sal Stevens at the Beat The Frog World Series Final

Note: This review is from 2009

Review by Steve Bennett

There’s more than a touch of Russell Brand about Sal Stevens, and it’s not just the Essex accent and the rhythms of his patter. He also has a very similar comic outlook with a set that’s conversational, personal, and sometimes a bit sexual.

The likeness is largely incidental as he chats engagingly and wittily about contraception and his overactive imagination conjecturing what his girlfriend got up to on a girls’ holiday – although reading a newspaper article about a man having sex with a Henry hoover is problematic, as Brand has spoken about the exact-same story on stage. Oops.
