"San Francisco writer and comedian Kurt Bodden has done stand-up, sketch comedy and even mime, but he has made his biggest splash playing a joyously inane self-help guru in his solo show STEVE SEABROOK: BETTER THAN YOU." -- Contra Costa Times
"As a VP of sales for over 20 years, I can say that 'hiring' Steve Seabrook was one of the best decisions I ever made. We had him 'train' our sales force as the entertainment at our annual sales kickoff meeting. He worked in many allusions to our company and brought 400 people into the palm of his hand. Simply stated, he closed the deal!" Jim Dawson, Former Chief Sales Officer, Fusion-io |

Theatrical Audiences Say...."The deftly executed 'seminar', and its behind-the-scenes reveals, explore the terrain with panache, cool wit, and shrewd characterization. As both writer and performer, Bodden keeps his Steve Seabrook a believable figure, whose all-too-ordinary life ends up something of a modest model of its own." -- SF Bay Guardian

Performer BioSteve Seabrook: Better Than You is written and performed by Kurt Bodden, a San Francisco-based writer and performer. "Steve Seabrook" draws on Kurt's extensive skills as an improvisor, standup comedian, physical performer, and even talk-show host … plus his experience leading corporate workshops in team-building, storytelling, presentation skills, and improvisation.
He’s a Harvard grad -- that was the subject of his previous solo show, where he compared himself to his more-prestigious fellow alumni. And he’s a user-experience designer (see his other website); now he’s satirizing that field, too. |
