Steve Steen (born 26 December 1954) is a British actor and comedian best known for his improvisation partnership with Jim Sweeney. The duo met at Clapham College and joined a theatre club in 1972. They wrote and starred in a show which parodied much of the other shows being held in London that year. Then they formed their own theatre company and wrote and toured productions around the UK for the rest of the 1970s. Steen and Sweeney appeared on television together for the first time in 1981 with the ITV children's show ''CBTV'', followed by one of Channel 4's first comedies, ''Little Armadillos'' and a role for Steen in Ben Elton's comedy ''Happy Families''. Rory Bremner recruited them as resident support performers on his first sketch show for the BBC, and shortly afterwards they starred as poets Byron (Steen) and Coleridge (Sweeney) in an episode of ''Blackadder the Third''. Steen had a major roles in Sweeney's award winning play, ''Danny's Wake'', which was subsequently adapted into a sitcom for Radio 4. Steen continued to play Billy throughout the two series. Steen played Liam in another radio play, ''Any Bloke''. Sweeney was recruited as a solo performer thereafter for ''Whose Line Is It Anyway?'', but Steen was soon summoned for the Channel 4 improvisation show, and was a runaway success in his six episodes. He also guested on ''Have I Got News for You'' in 1992 (without Sweeney). He has combined one-off acting roles on TV with taking improv tours, with Sweeney and others, around the UK and beyond.〔(Jim Sweeney profile ), jimsweeney.co.uk; accessed 14 July 2015.〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Steve Steen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
