Comedy games and workshops in the workplace are the perfect way to create an atmosphere of fun and friendship.
Whether you’re onboarding new staff or giving your team a pat on the back for their hard work, I’ve got just the thing for you, from board game days to crowd favourites like Comedy Bingo or Dungeons and Naggins and workshops like Irish Culture through Comedy.
Benefits include
Boosts morale and mood
Fosters teamwork
Reduces stress levels
Improves overall workplace well-being
Studies show that shared laughter is the best way to strengthen our connections with other people. Yes, really!
And if you're looking for something specific to suit your event, I can create a game show for your guests. I've got you covered, I'm a games master!
Comedy Bingo
Comedy Bingo is my most popular show for a reason.
Think of it as bingo, but much, much funnier – simple to play (any size group, any venue), with audience participation, interaction and antics. And of course, fun prizes too.
And whatever event you’re planning, I can adapt the show to meet your specific needs.
Why my clients love Comedy Bingo
Fun and Interactive
Easy to play and fun to watch and participate in, with hilarious tie-breaker games. Winners can choose either a prize or a ‘mystery box’ that may - or may not - contain a better prize.
Customisable
Tailor the game to fit your company’s event, theme and audience
All Inclusive
I bring everything you need – bingo cards, pencils and prizes.
Perfect for both large and small groups, introverts and extroverts and everyone in between. People can choose to get involved or simply sit back and enjoy the show.
Bespoke Game Show
Looking for something a bit different to entertain the audience at your next work event?
How about a comedy game show designed just for your company?
When I tailor a show, I make sure it delivers the laughs and feel-good factor you’re looking for. It might be a custom quiz, ‘quizzybingo’ (a hybrid of quiz and bingo), a ’getting to know you’ game, or a special show just for onboarding newbies… the list is endless.

It’s the perfect way to introduce your team to Irish culture in a fun and relaxed setting, while enjoying a few laughs along the way.

Dungeons & Naggins Live
My Dungeons and Naggins Live show was around long before I launched the board game itself.
And it continues to be a big crowd-pleaser today.
A bit like Dungeons & Dragons but easier to play, it’s a comedy fantasy adventure game full of quests, danger and laughs. All you have to do is turn up, join in and roll the dice. Great as a team-building experience.

John Close, Verve
“Steve hosted a bespoke Werewolves night for our team in Verve (Vervewolves - a clever name of his own design). We're an events company who work with a lot of hosts, facilitators, comics etc., so I want to stress how big a deal it is that he raised the bar and impressed every single one of us on the night. We only asked him to host a game, but he didn't just do that, he created a whole night based around us. Expertly getting everyone engaged from the get go, with a series of taster games that all came with lovely clear instruction sheets that he made himself, before effortlessly bringing us through the main event.
Not everyone knew what they were getting in for, but Steve's comedy, charm, confidence, and the enthusiasm that's just baked into his face, gave us all so much enjoyment together as workmates that we were all chatting about it days later. Dare I say, he baked some lasting enthusiasm into our own faces.”
