In the final days of 2024, Australian comedy legend **Steve Hughes** underwent major open heart surgery.

Feeling a bit off one day in early November, Steve thought it best to check into a Sydney hospital to be on the safe side. Lucky he did –  just days later he was operated on to have a worn out valve replaced.

The operation was a success, Steve has been recovering and is now ready to get back on the stage! In addition to his March dates across NSW, Steve has confirmed NINE shows at the Adelaide Fringe!
