07.02.10 Stewart Lee, plus Simon Munnery
Stewart Lee's clever Stand Up has to be the most captivating, and intelligently provocative in the country, his exquisitely crafted comedy pieces and brilliant stage craft have audiences hanging on each askant observation and every rallying cry for uncommon sense. Britain's Bill Hicks but alive and well... and British.
"The funniest, most cliche-free comedian on the circuit." Ricky Gervais
"Stewart Lee is the closest the British comedy scene has to a cult hero, rarely has cynicism been so charming, intelligence so sexy, serious concerns so funny… arguably Britain’s first post-modern stand-up comedian...wickedly sharp and precise.."
Jonathon Gibbs, The Scotsman
Simon Munnery has explored the divide between "unfunny comedy" and "shit art".
He also starred in BBC 2's "Attention Scum" as The League Against Tedium, and appears each year at Edinburgh Fringe with his Annual General Meeting, where the audience are invited to submit motions on any subject for the consideration of the room.
