Steve-O (a.k.a. Stephen Glover) has become a household name when it comes to stunt-based comedy and it all started when he grabbed a video camera from his father’s closet as a teen to produce home videos featuring comical, dangerous stunts.

Born in London, UK, Steve-O traveled to the USA to enrol in Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Clown College to become a professional stuntman.  After graduating Clown College, he set out in Hollywood, pitching his home videos to producers and was finally discovered by Jeff Tremaine (Jackass Creator/Director/Producer) who was working on a reality show featuring stunts.  In the year 2000, partnering with Johnny Knoxville, and friends, MTV aired the first season of Jackass which lasted until 2002.

JACKASS: THE MOVIE soon followed, along with the launch of Steve-O’s tour entitled “Steve-O Don’t Try This At Home”. Steve-O moved on to star in the MTV and MTV2’s show WILDBOYZ, competed on the hit show, DANCING WITH THE STARS, starred in JACKASS: NUMBER2 and JACKASS 3D, and went on multiple stand-up comedy tours around the world.

Immersing himself in the world of stand-up comedy, Steve-O has been successfully performing at prestigious comedy venues in LA and New York, and hitting the stand-up circuit across North America, Australia and Europe since 2010. Known for his sometimes insane antics on JACKASS, Steve-O’s stand-up offers shock value in the form of verbal comedy with a few stunts thrown in, of course.

In a recent interview, Steve-O explained that “[…]what makes my act fun and juicy is I talk about stuff that makes others feel awkward talking about.”  According to this stuntman turned comedian, if you enjoyed JACKASS, you’ll enjoy his comedy act.  Having found his “stride” and “voice”, Steve-O has thoroughly enjoyed his transition into the comedy world.

Currently performing across North America, Steve-O is scheduled to hit Canada on a 4-stop BC tour in early fall performing in Kelowna, Vancouver, Victoria and Nanaimo.  This energetic, naturally hilarious comedian, Steve-O is bound to offer a unique and crazy night of laughs.
