Jackass star Steve-O coming to Wolverhampton
Thursday 25th August 2011, 9:31AM BST.
Jackass star Steve-O is bringing his stand-up comedy tour to Wolverhampton.
“The Entirely Too Much Information Tour”, a mixture of stand-up, stunts and bar-tricks, calls in at Wolverhampton’s Wulfrun Hall on Tuesday, November 1, 2011.
Tickets priced £15 are available at Midland Box Office on 0870 320 7000 or www.wolvescivic.co.uk
Born Stephen Glover in London, it all started for Steve-O when he snatched a video camera from his father’s cupboard when he was fifteen years old. From there he started producing homemade skateboarding videos featuring dangerous stunts mixed with comical behavior.
After finishing high school in London, and completing a year at the University of Miami, Steve-O realized that college wasn’t for him. He enrolled in Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Clown College to help further his goal of becoming a professional stuntman. After graduating Clown College, and determined to make it in Hollywood, he began to pitch his home videos to producers.
Eventually, Steve-O’s videos made it into the hands of Jackkass creator Jeff Tremaine who was working with Johnny Knoxville to create a stunt-based reality show. The rest is history.
