After four years writing and performing twelve half hours of stand up for his TV show, this is work in progress towards Stewart's first brand new full-length live show since the award-winning Carpet Remnant World. 'Like being ranted at by a drunk polytechnic lecturer' (Daily Mail).

Content Provider by Stewart Lee - book review

You have to have a thick skin to be a columnist. I went off the idea of blogging regularly when I published a think-piece about an offhand remark Josie Long made onstage and Jason Manford responded by saying that I didn't have to turn every thought into a column. Stewart Lee must have the hide of an elephant as he has managed to turn out enough Observer, Shortlist & New Statesman columns (plus a press release for the band Wolf People who I assume really exist) in five years to fill this book.

Fringe preview: Stewart Lee

These are dark days indeed. David Bowie dead, Brexit and the BBC not recommissioning Stewart Lee's Comedy Vehicle. It is precisely at times like this that we need Lee on a major mainstream platform.

User reviews

Really like Stewart Lee but seen him on the 20th and it was OK but not great. Started well but the last 20 minutes weren't great. Would have been good if he'd have finished with 10 mins of strong stuff he knew worked well.
