Stewart Lee is on his way

Lee, known for hit TV shows like This Morning With Richard Not Judy, Fist Of Fun and Stewart Lee’s Comedy Vehicle, as well as penning the controversial Jerry Springer: The Opera, picked up the prizes for best male television comic and best comedy entertainment programme at the 2011 British Comedy Awards.

His latest tour ‘Carpet Remnant World’ sees Lee coming to terms with his age. 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.

Stewart Lee will be at Lincoln Performing Arts Centre on Saturday 17th March. Tickets are £16.50 - £18.70. For tickets call 0844 888 4414 or visit www.lpac.co.uk.
