Stewart Lee

If You Prefer a Milder Comedian, Please Ask For One

by Stewart Lee

Comedian Stewart Lee’s celebrated show begins in a high street coffee chain and ends in a pear cider which is 100% disappointment.

Expect punchy stuff near the top, inexplicable hostility towards relatively innocuous figures, silences and repetition, sudden and/or gradual shifts in tone, velocity and volume, the possibility of failure and a quasi-serious bit at the end.

‘Stewart Lee’s latest show is beautifully crafted, expertly delivered and often brain-tinglingly funny.’
Daily Telegraph

Stewart Lee was the co-writer and director of Jerry Springer – The Opera at the National in 2003, and has recently been seen on television in Stewart Lee’s Comedy Vehicle.
