SNAFU COMEDY CLUB WITH RO CAMPBELL & REVEREND OBADIAH STEPPENWOLFE III // TUESDAY 17TH MARCH // SNAFU



RO CAMPBELL Ro Campbell on MySpace Comedy - Comic Clips, Funny Videos & Jokes

Ro did his first stand up gig, aged 29, at The Stand in Edinburgh on a Red Raw night, back in early 2005. Since then he has been busy learning the craft by gigging all over Britain and as far afield as Shetland, Barcelona, Budapest, Dublin, Melbourne and Her Majesties Prison, Glen Ochil. He has continued to go from strength to strength, his material being wide ranging and well crafted, and he can be seen regularly at clubs all around the UK and Ireland, supporting some of the biggest names on the comedy circuit. ‘Effortless and Briliant...’ The List 2008
'Very wrong, Rather funny' Chortle.co.uk (Hackney Empire Final 2009)
‘His dry set-ups are emhasised by his lethargic Australian tones as he hammers home the punchlines...showing the craft of a Circuit Pro.’ The Skinny 2008
‘the belly laughs kept coming so fast that tears were starting to flow..." Shetland Times 2006
'a hugely entertaining and accomplished performer...4 stars ****' The Skinny 2009

THE REVEREND OBADIAH STEPPENWOLFE III The Reverend Obadiah Steppenwolfe III on MySpace Comedy - Comic Clips, Funny Videos & Jokes

Winner of the 2003 Chortle Award for Best Breakthrough Act and a star of BBC2's Live Floor Show, The Reverend is not your average holy man. With his heavy metal music, black leather, sunglasses and love of hot tub bible classes, he cuts a pretty intimidating figure. A true two-fisted Tennessee trailer-trash TV evangelist, he makes the sinners swing from the rafters.

Having managed to offend virtually every religious group and been barred from most places of worship, The Reverend has taken to spreading the word
of the Lord on the BBC, as well as around comedy clubs all over the UK. He was a regular on both series of BBC Scotland's Live Floor Show, for which he was nominated for a Scottish BAFTA best newcomer award. His success on the show secured him a weekly spot when the show later transferred to BBC2 network for a 10 part series.

His 2003 Edinburgh Fringe show with Frankie Boyle provoked massive, diverse reactions and was simultaneously hailed as the most exciting and original
as well as the most offensive and dangerous show on the fringe. This show led to The Rev and Frankie being commissioned to write on the Channel 4 Jimmy Carr vehicle, 'Distraction' and its' subsequent re-commission.

2006 saw The Reverend writing for Channel 4's '8 Out Of 10 Cats' and Channel 4 Radio as well as for BBC TWO's 'Mock The Week'. He stole the show at the
Reading Festival, his festival debut, and his Edinburgh Festival Show, 'What Would Charlie Sheen Do?' received 5 star reviews.

'The man is a tornado, a fount of pitch-perfect jokes coupled with quite masterful timing and material that flouts the very laws of censure.........Utterly challenging and well-crafted, it is, of course, howlingly funny.' The Metro*****

'Laugh? I almost shat myself. Rarely at the festival do you get a) amazing Scottish comedy and b) comedians who can send you into a fit of absolute
hysteria for an hours Class. The two comedians from BBC's 'Live Floor Show' appeared laid-back and blasé, yet have killer lines and must rank among the best Scottish performers at the festivals. An absolute must-see.' The List, Frankie Boyle & The Reverend Obadiah Steppenwolfe III, 2003 Edinburgh Fringe
