The Profile
The entertainer behind the Steam stage.
Flora Simpson has hosted more events at Steam Wine Bar than any other performer in our history. Five appearances across three years running the Steam Quiz Night, which has become one of the best loved regular fixtures in the calendar. Her combination of quiz round design, crowd control, and the ability to make fifty strangers in suits actually laugh at pub quiz jokes has turned our quiz night into a proper monthly event.
She is a working entertainer whose quiz hosting is the central part of her practice, and the reason Steam keeps booking her is simple. She is brilliant at the job, and the regulars ask for her by name.
“A good quiz is not about the questions. It is about the room. If you get the room right, the questions will look after themselves.”
Career highlights
