I've missed late night trains!

Drunk women are belting out I Dreamed A Dream. I am shocked by every single line as I learn what they think the lyrics are.

Only one of them was brave enough to belt the final high note.

"Oh my God you can SING 🥹🥹🥹" said one of the others.

(She can't, really.)

I'm back from the Edinburgh Fringe! And I've neglected BluSky, so let me tell you about my adventures.

We all do things at a different pace. It must have taken me 6 years between my first piano lesson and passing Grade 1.

Anyway, after 14 and a half years of performing standup comedy, I have been given the Pegasus Award for Best Newcomer.

Doctor Who! The 90s! Two of my favourite things!

I'd be so excited for this book even if I wasn't one of the writers for it.

And Philip Purser-Hallard's book will be great too.

2025 Comedy Shows 31/52 - Steffan Alun: Stand Up

Steffan's debut hour! It is nice to see a nice man do nice jokes and also accuse the asexual community of being permanently high.

I'm told the Edinburgh Comedy Awards are sending a scout to my show tonight.

If you're at the Fringe, come along and laugh! And cheer! And say things like "if only we lived in a world where this show earned the award it so clearly deserves"!

It's been nearly ten years since I thought of this joke, and this is the year it paid off.

Here are all 8 posters for my solo Edinburgh comedy shows, from 2016 to 2025.

I just started listening to this new-ish podcast, on @steffanalun.bsky.social's recommendation. Guy 1 is writing a murder mystery and guy 2 is directing the detective's next move, like whodunit D&D. It's the kind of thing you'd probably like if you follow me.

The Directed Detective
Two hosts. One of them has plotted a murder mystery. The other must direct the detective and solve the case within ten episodes.

The Lyric Theatre in Bridport was such a cool place for my last preview before the Fringe. Great staff and volunteers, really nice audience.

I think I'm ready now. Book your tickets to see me in Edinburgh!

New Episode Day! I'm joined by @steffanalun.bsky.social to aid in defeated a big dumb green bird and finally learn the Korean language. Will we succeed?

Also I spend a lot of the show on a ghost ship in what I think is the most tenuous metaphor in the podcast so far?

I wrote a story for this! I'm so excited to read the rest.
Something I've been working on recently, with Stuart Douglas at obversebooks.co.uk. It's a charity anthology celebrating the Eighth Doctor novels of the late 1990s! It's out in August and it's up for pre-order right now! x obversebooks.co.uk/product/part...

Not great for my confidence that my mortgage provider's drop-down menu doesn't include "comedian", "standup" or "performer", but DOES have "ventriloquist".
