Richmond Theatre : Stewart Lee OLD EVENT

play image

* 'The funniest thing on television'* Guardian

What can a sexless middle aged married man, whose life now consists mainly of watching Scooby Doo cartoons with a four year old boy, possibly find to write comedy about? Formerly stand-up's youthful iconoclast, Lee now gawps blankly at News 24 as Britain burns down around him, and blinks weirdly at the vast wayside retail outlets during endless journeys to and from increasingly indistinct provincial theatres. Once he lived on the pleasure planet. Now he is trapped in Carpet Remnant World. And so are you.

**** 'Thrilling'* Metro

***** 'Fascinating, funny stuff' *The Times * **** 'Heralds a new brand of political stand-up' *The Guardian

'Lee's glittering rants blend cynicism, vanity and unbearable snobbery.'

Guy Stagg, Daily Telegraph * 'About as funny as bubonic plague' *The Sun
